'Wachtmeister der Gendarmerie' Shoulder-boards

Description

Pair of 'Gendarmerie' shoulder-boards. The police were divided into eight assorted branches of service and during the restructuring the different police agencies were assigned specific identifying 'Truppenfarbe' (Branch Colors), with the orange truppenfarbe being allocated to the 'Gendarmerie' (Rural Police). The German Police had no enlisted ranks with the lowest rank being an 'Unterwachtmeister' which was equivalent to the German army rank of Unteroffizier. This is a pair of 'Gendarmerie' shoulder-boards as intended for a 'Wachtmeister der Gendarmerie'. The boards are constructed from brown and silver braid on a orange underlay. The boards are complete with slip-on tongues. The boards are still wrapped together in a paper manufacturer's wrapping by the company of 'Lendvay' from Wien. Nice original shoulder boards in mint and unissued condition!
