TeNo Kameradschaftsf�hrer w M43 Piped Cap
This outstanding Photo was just sold on eBay today, Aug. 18,2010. The sticker
shock price was a bit too steep at 104 Euros! CONGRATS to the new owner & hope
that he / she is a WAF member. [Even though I didn't get it, I'm pleased to see that
the appreciation of the TeNo is growing.]
This photo shows a young TeNo Kameradschaftsf�hrer wearing the M43 Piped Cap.
with Silver Edge Piping [for that rank.] I am 'guessing' at the Kameradschaftsf�hrer rank,
as I see no distinctive TeNo 'pips' on his Shoulder Boards. [His youth is historically
important - as too many writers repeat the outdated lines of "old guys in the TeNo."]
We are seeing pictorially that this has proven to be incorrect.
His Right Collar Tab is black, without Numbers, signifying that he is unattached to
a specific unit - or - that he just that he is serving outside of the Reich. Buttons
are the plain type, without the distinctive TeNo Cog Wheel logo. [This helps to ID
the time-line to 1941 or later.]
This Grey TeNo Uniform was worn alongside the distinctive Police Green 1943
TeNo-Police Uniform, both until 1945. I can not ID his Ribbon Bar & Pin.
A Great Photo for our TeNo Archives! CONGRATS! ... Dave / dblmed
