Superb - and rarely encountered! - (I deem) enlisted-mens'-type, so-called: 'Schutzmannschaften' (or: 'Schuma') armshield, as executed in bright-orange coloured thread on a (tyical police) green-coloured background

This is an attractive - and actually rarely encountered! - (I deem) enlisted-mens'-type so-called: 'Schutzmannschaften' (or: 'Schuma') armshield depicting the text: 'Treu, Tapfer, Gehorsam' (which can be translated as: 'loyal, brave and obeying') being an example as executed in bright-orange coloured thread on a (typical police) green-coloured background and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. 'virtually mint-/unissued'-), condition. The neat arm-badge is executed in bright-orange coloured thread on a (typical police) green-coloured background and as such signified the close interrelation between the - notorious! - 'Schuma'-units and the German police (ie. 'Polizei') ie. Waffen-SS and/or SD-units. I personally think that this badge was intended for enlisted-mens' usage: it was executed in the neat machine-woven pattern (almost certainly by the 'BeVo' company of Wuppertal). The neat piece comes in a mint- ie. non-folded and/or unconfectioned condition and just shows some minimal age ie. staining caused by decades of storage only. Simply a nice and rarely encountered 'Ostvölker'-related armbadge!
