    Shoulder board/collar tab ID

    Hi,
    Can someone ID these items? I suspect Justice or perhaps Zoll? the Green SBs have reddish gold "chevrons.
    Regards,
    Sam

    The collar tabs are Weimar Republic era Polizei.

    The boards on the left are Forestry-- but I believe the West German ones are/were the same basic type, so no clue as to exact age.

    The boards in the middle--- ???

      On the collar tabs, take a look at the Johnson's Volume III, Wearing the Edged Weapons of the Third Reich. There are two photos of an officer shown with exactly those tabs. He is listed as a 'Justice Official'.

        But what COLOR were those? This style of tab (copied from the ones worn on Imperial army Litewkas--you can see one in Imperial Forum "Bavarian M1916..." thread) was generic to just about anything Weimar era "law enforcement."

        I had a named, researched Polizei-Meister tunic from the Berlin PD (radio dispatched motor patrol, shades of the movie "M") with exactly these SchuPo green tabs and gilt edging/buttons.

          Can't tell on the color Rick - B&W photo, of course. Very well could be green but any other similar color is possible too, such as a medium blue. Style is an exact match.
