They certainly did. Alan Beadle has a cap in stock for this organisation.

In 1942 Himmler incorporated the Postschutz into the SS, changing their uniforms to SS Style. Their role now was to actively protect mail and telephonic communications in Germany and the occupied territories from sabotage and attacks by partisans. During the last months of the War they were sent into frontline action, both in their own units and as part of the Volksturm.
