Help with uniform please

[vic007]

Hello

Here's a pic of a german soldier.
I would like to know what type of uniform he is wearing.
There are no shoulderboards nor Kragenspiegel.

There is something above his armband but i don't know what it is.
Could it be a RAD patch? or something else?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best regards

Hello Stijn,

I would say it's a 4 pocket RAD service uniform.
On his left arm ,he is wears a N.S.D.A.P armband and I guess a RAD detachment/unit arm patch.
But I am curious how others are thinking about the picture and which uniform.

Hi Stijn,

It looks like an RAD unit patch above the brassard to me.

Any reason why this should not be RAD?

Thank you for the reply guys.

Not specifically no. I asked this question as i'm not so familiar with all the types of German uniforms of that period.
You never know what type of armpatches there were.

Best regards
