Hi. I feel a bit of a fraud being on such a knowledgable forum but I need some basic information about SS-Totenkopf uniform. I’m working on a film and one of our characters is an Totenkopf officer at Auschwitz in 1944 and I’m a bit confused on what collar tabs to give him. Should it be bullion/metal thread or embroidered and should it be horizontal or vertical? Was it personal preference? Help! I so want to get this correct.
