Thirty ranks? How did that come about, how could it work?
where have the rank insignias gone?? Feeblezak 11:43, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
It certainly wasn't official, but where was this actually used or brought up initially to be sourced even as an idea? The term Hoheren Sinnestrager as per this source - ...The terminology is quite suggestive. To call God a Hoheren Sinnestrager meant linguistically to give him some place in the military hierarchy, since the Nazis had changed the military... 65.102.40.8 ( talk) 06:47, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
The swastika armband (Hakenkreuzarmbinde) was introduced in 1920 by the early National Socialists as a "combat armband" (Kampfbinde). In doing so, they took over the swastika from the anti-Semitically influenced Völkische Bewegung.
Initially, this armband was used to identify the party members of the NSDAP, as they were equipped with different street clothes and a wide variety of reworked uniform pieces from the First World War or the Freikorps, and were often indistinguishable from their political opponents.
Before the introduction of the badges of rank and shoulder pieces, since 1921 the rank of the wearer was represented in the NS organisations by means of different horizontal stripes and colours. For the "Jugendbund der NSDAP", founded on 13 May 1922, which wore an SA-like uniform, a separate armband was introduced in 1924. This was later adopted by the Hitler Youth.
From 1925 the armband was called "Sturmbinde" (storm armband), but until the unconditional surrender on 8 May 1945 both designations were used. Until then there were about 38 variations of this armband.
This armband was a significant characteristic of the National Socialist functionaries during the National Socialist era. In the last weeks of the war, the swastika armband also served in some cases as a uniform substitute for the Volkssturm, although the latter was characterized by its own armband. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8109:B00:4776:DDFF:757A:C708:A613 ( talk) 16:26, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
