History


Armbands were usually used to identify a soldier’s special duty position or function. It would normally only be worn in the carrying out of said duty or function. It could also be used to identify a civilian as an official employee of the army.

Most armbands were worn on the left upper sleeve, but there were exceptions to this rule.

Railway Station Guards (Bahnhofswachen) as part of the transportation offices (Transportdienststellen) wore a yellow armband with black Gothic letters.
