there is Waffen SS and regular SS..... regular SS was a form of police basically, the Waffen SS was the military branch. SS have police forces....most was made up from German policemen, and also later on foreigners (just as Waffen SS had a large foreign division/volunteer group).. |

He's a FeldJaeger. A German MP. I can't recall off the top of my head what they call the breastplate but it is the same as a field brassard.
