SS Collar Patches of Nazi Germany
At the beginning SS uniforms used a variety of insignia, the most standard of which were collar patches to denote rank.
For the lower ranks, the SS specified that a patch showing the wearer's regiment (Standarte) would be worn opposite the badge of rank while the higher SS leaders would continue to wear oakleaf insignia on both collars.
Collar tabs below the rank of Sturmführer were edged in black-and-white twist cord; those of Sturm and Sturmbann leaders used black-and-silver while those of senior leaders were edged in solid silver cord.
By the end of 1933, there were three unit collar insignia patches in existence: the SS runes used by the Leibstandarte, the blank collar patch used by the SS headquarters and command staff, and the numbered SS unit insignia worn by regular SS companies throughout Germany.
In 1934, with the rise of the SS-Verfügungstruppe (SS-VT), the SS runes unit insignia was expanded to these other formatations of the then fledgling military arm of the SS (later to become known as the Waffen-SS). To separate these new military formations from the main Leibstandarte regiment under Dietrich, the SS runes worn by the Verfügungstruppe displayed a small number corresponding to the particular SS-VT regiment of the bearer. In all, there were three possible numbers:
1 for members of the Deutschland Regiment, 2 for Germania personnel, and (from 1938) 3 for members of the Der Führer Regiment
In the wake of the "Röhm-Putsch" in 1934, the SS officially took over the concentration camps from the SA and police. Soon thereafter, camp guards began wearing the Totenkopf ("death's head") on the right collar patch (the jawless Danziger style., to distinguish themselves from the numbered Allgemeine-SS Standarten.
In late 1934, enlisted collar patches changed from black-and-white to black-and-silver edging; all officers now wore silver-piped collar tabs. Around the same time it was stipulated the SS runes unit collar patch was to be worn on the right side of the tunic collar although there were a few exceptions.
In the period leading up to the War and beyond, with the expansion of the ‘military’ aspect of the SS, and the re-assignment of many original members to various new formations, standardization became very hazy and as the war progressed, re-use and lack of resources led to many ofddities.
The ancient jawless Danziger style of Totenkopf was gradually replaced by the 'classic' SS skull, a naturalistic design with grinning jaws; the old form was taken up by the army's newly formed Panzerwaffe.
