Ranks and insignia of the Reichsluftschutzbund

Uniforms and insignia of the Reichsluftschutzbund were paramilitary titles adopted by the ( – RLB) for wear on paramilitary uniforms of the RLB.

Uniforms

Much like the uniforms of the SA and the SS, the RLB maintained its own elaborate system of uniforms and ranks. While most often a field uniform was worn, that had little accoutrements beyond rank, a shoulder band with RLB insignia, a helmet with RLB identification on it and occasionally a gorget; a service coat did exist, which was modeled off of the standard Nazi Party paramilitary dress. The Nazi armband was worn on the service coat, but was absent on the field uniform, where it was replaced by the RLB armband. A badge that had the initials of the Reichsluftschutzbund on it also existed, and was worn by members both in and out of uniform.

Women could also volunteer for the RLB, and were permitted to wear the field uniform, but without rank.
