S009994 SS STANDARTENFÜHRER'S COLLAR TAB. (Kragenpatten) 

BACKGROUND: In August 1929 the SS incorporated the wear of rank collar tabs on the left side of the collar of the service tunic. The SS collar tabs were originally adopted from the earlier rank collar tabs as utilized by the SA, Sturmabteilung, (Storm Troops). The SS collar tabs remained in usage through out the war with a couple of minor alterations. The ranks of SS Standartenführer up to SS Reichsführer didn’t utilize the runic collar tab but wore the rank collar tabs in a mirror image on both the left and right collar. In April 1942 the first pattern collar tabs for the rank of SS Oberführer were slightly modified creating a second pattern that was worn for the duration of the war. 

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Second pattern, (circa 1942 1945), black velvet construction SS Standartenführer collar tab features a hand embroidered oak leaf with three small acorns to each in bright silver/aluminum wire threads with bright twisted, silver/aluminum cord piping. The collar tabs is mounted on tan buckram base. Removable type for the summer tunic.
