Erd Braun
The Totenkopfverbande Soldiers that guarded the first concentration camps wore the functional Earth Brown uniform.As with everything else,the SS had strict regulations governing the insignia to be worn on it.Cufftitles were not authorized.All insignia was removable.i.e Collar Patches w screw posts,shoulder strap and Kampfbinde,as well as all the buttons.
This was obviously done to facilitate cleaning.
