'Reichsluftschutzbund' (RLB) blue-coloured, linnen-based armband for Leader's (Armbinde für Führer), as worn by RLB Leader's. The RLB (Reichsluftschutzbund) was an official national organization tasked with all aspects of civil air raid defence. Uniformed RLB personnel were issued an identifying armband to be worn on the upper left sleeve when performing RLB duties. This is the first pattern (1933-1937) RLB armband showing an interwoven white coloured RLB logo. Both the top and bottom edges of the armband are trimmed in silver tress signifying Officers ranks. The armband also shows an interwoven maker marking, 'ERHA-Wuppertal', together with an 'Ges.Gesch.' marking. Hard to find RLB Officer's Armband in good used condition!
