I can see one wearing a triangle too. There are even earlier uniforms with no triangle aren't there? Be cool to have some kind of timeline to show uniform changes thru years. Perhaps I just gotta buy some reference books :blush:.
 
That's what I think is odd about the photo. The triangles were introduced well after the shoulder straps. Another of those HJ insignia anomalies we see in period pictures.
 
Good photo. Of note they do not appear to be wearing shoulder straps.

All but the boy with the triangle are wearing shoulder straps as far as I can see. I am referring to the straps which cross the right shoulders and are attached to their belts. :mellow:
