History


The uniforms, headgear, and insignia of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP) went through several design changes from 1933 until the end of the Second World War. Dr. Ley, originally the Gauleiter of Rheinland and later promoted to the position of chief of staff of Party Organization and Reich Organization Leader, was largely responsible for the NSDAP rank system and uniforms.

The shoulder boards were only utilized for regular NSDAP members for a short period of time, from 1932 until 1934.

The Ortsgruppenleiter Shoulder Boards feature a cloth base with silver-coloured cords (twisted wire) and a single horizontal section of silver-coloured cord (twisted wire) at the bottom.
