FSP / FW / WSF - Questions - 04/05/2007 03:36 AM
OK, so maybe it is just my police background, but for the life of me I have the hardest time trying to come to terms with Feuerwehr Insignia. Must be that pseudo sibling rivelry between PD/FD. A little help here would be greatly appreciated. I have gone through numerous old threads, both here and abroad, and have sorted out the following:
Feuerschutzpolizei: Provided police authority at fire scene and supplemented local FD.
Insignia: Carmine on Green backing.
Feuerwehr: Local Firefighting command
Insignia: Carmine on Black backing. Carmine on Green backing.
Werkfeuerwehr: Factory Fire Command
Insignia: Carmine on Black backing.
OK, My question,... am I close ? I mention the insignia above with the understanding I am speaking of the EM/NCO Patches. I know there was a silver on green and a silver on black for the superior officers of the FSP / FW.
I know 1st style insignia had the city / district names on them. Subsequently these were ordered to be removed. Finally were all three supposed to wear the police green based patches with carmine embrodiery ? At this point I'm just trying to sort out the color progression at this point. I know there were various backing materials for coveralls, jackets, etc..
I did a quick graphic chart to simplify it. Let me know if I am close to the mark of if I am off, how bad.
Thanks for the help,
Andrew
