Dear Mr Бамбуров Сергей , I don't understand your request?

I think he wants to know what Gruppe the gray is for on this tunic on Weitzes' site (I never knew gray could look so good):

Light gray collar patches were worn by the SA in the Generalgouvernement (GG), i.e. occupied Poland.

Tunic

Post 1941, SA Gruppe "Weichsel" wore blue-grey collar tabs. SA Reserve II wore grey collar tabs. I have seen them with a metal "R" and metal number, but the metal devices here don't make sense to me. ANY SA collar tab with metal numbers should ALWAYS be regarded with suspicion. Yes, they were used during the period, but not very often. Unless Erich B., Luft. Blue, or Wewelsburg (can't name everybody) has information that explains the odd metal tab devices, and their significance, I'd seriously question this lovely garment.

The introduction of these 2nd pattern shoulderboards alleviated the need for metal specialty devices. The signal blitz wouldn't bother me so much if the shoulderboard underlay was the correct signals color. Lots of questions on the tunic. Any answers?

this looks like a humped-up piece just from the photos. but to a blind man running for his life it might pass muster. seriously, this screams bad to me.

The discussion continues on about the use of metal attachments on collar tabs. Though as we know not often used but I do have some photos of SA men with what appears metal attachments applied, I personally like the tabs.

I see - figures and an arrow - one color - one metal - one deterioration. It is one complete set I think it good tabs

Tunic

Since when did SA Gruppe Berlin wear grey collar tabs? If the argument is that it's a grey Reserve II tab, it could have a metal "R", but instead, it has a metal "X" which is a Sturmbann number, not a Sturm number, so even the accompanying description is erroneous. No one answered why he was obviously in a signal unit, but someone forgot to tell him that signal shoulderboards are underlaid in lemon yellow. Like the D.I. in Full Metal Jacket, "You wanna be DIFFERENT!!"

General government SA,instead of the word sturm SA units used the term Hunderschaft and in 1942 renamed (wehrschutzen Bereitschaften) meaning light infantry, maybe why this has grey underside to shoulderboards as they were all foot units in essence? Also one of my books state the collar should have GG attached, Sean

Why does the description say it's a Standarte in Berlin?
