Sorry to have been absent for so long: my interest in the Polizei is as strong as ever (and work on volume 3 in my Bender series continues) but sickness in the family has kept me busy with less plearurable pursuits.
Just a quickie on the Verwaltungspolizei: I have a note that officials with the rank of Polizeirat and above wore bright red as an additional colour (Nebenfarbe) on the shoulder straps. Can anyone confirm this, and give the source?
Many thanks and best wishes to all.
