Re: ss cuff titles
The five button SS hbt tunic did not exist.When you say two cuff titles being worn at the same,what did you want to portray?,SS war reporters could wear their SS-kriegsberichter cuff titles with the divisional cuff title they were assigned to .Feldgendarmerie of the LAH could wear their FG cuff titles below the adolf hitler cuff title,men assigned to training schools could the name of the school(eg Tolz)and their unit CT,but only at the school.John

Re: ss cuff titles
thanks for the heads up on the hbts John, with regards to two cuff titles i meant if someone had left totenkopf and been reasignd to the LAH [for example ] would they have been allowed to wear the the former units cuff title aswell. thanks simon, ksk

Re: ss cuff titles
I cannot say I've seen this done,some one who was transferred from TK to LAH would be considered a 'step up' and I think wearing any other cuff title other than 'Adolf hitler' would not be allowed.I have trawled through my copy of Cloth insignia of the SS by J.angolia and not found any examples of such a case.When the 'Hitler Jugend' div; was formed,they transferred officers and nco's from the LSSAH they kept their original insignia.John

Re: ss cuff titles
I found this in another one of my books and is the only exeption because the two units were closely linked and was not used for long.
