Hello, I have noticed for quite some time now the mistakes made when trying to identify Reischsarbeitsdienst Ableitung numbers for locations of certain areas, Honor Names ( Ehrenname ) and sleeve shields ( Dienstellenabzeichen ).
There is a common list that can be found on the internet that has some information but it is flawed and not up to date.
For instance, if one is seeking information about a photo and the Arbeitsmann has a sleeve shield of 1/231, most may believe it to be 1/231 Ohrdruf according to their list, that is simply false without any indicators of location in the photo and is purely a suggestion. During our studies we try to take it to another level by using period pics, postcards, archives and documents, much can be learned and discovered.
If we look at the below illustration we see on the left ‘The List’ as seen on the web and to the right our research, there is a considerable difference.. I have omitted the ‘Honor Names’ on one example. So, don’t be discouraged when trying to determine a specific region or group, there are Forums and Private Organizations that specialize in this type of research.
Just be wary of claims sometimes, as that is all they are… G

Dear all,

I would like to kindly ask some info on this decal (Eagle) that has a sign that I cannot understand. I am posting these pictures and cannot understand for example the circled signed that looks like a “feathet” in that corner. What could be so defined and precise? It doesn’t look a crust or ruined part. Also how is it possible having still the tricolor decal after 1940 order to remove it…it could be possible having kept it but on original apple green…here they applied feldgrau for the same order. So strange they applied one order but still the tricolor applied…what do you think ? And does it looks aged and authentic ? Many thanks everyone !!!

Here is a sword I’ve had for a while. My grandfather had it, and I’d play with it as a kid, running through the woods and what not. If only he or my dad knew, they’d have a fit, lol!

I haven’t really seen any definitive suggestions as to what exact period it’s from, though I was told when I was younger, that it was a WWI Bavarian police sword. It has a ACS Scales stamp mark on the blade close to the hilt.

If This is not WWI, Please forgive me, because swords are not my specialty.
