The regulations are sometimes different from the practice...(It’s known but it’s better in photos!!)

photo 2 : BDM with DJ jackets (Landjahrdienst says the description on the back)

Very interesting photos. The bright skirt is out of line and isn't exactly in the BDM pattern (not only is the skirt not blue, the pockets don't meet the regulations) Really surprising, the uniform rules were strict (as far as I know) and a girl in a light-colored skirt wouldn't have actually listened to a picture in such a somewhat official formal formation. But you can see what was possible.

I also didn't know, that it was allowed, to sew territory triangles onto private clothing.

Thanks for showing the pictures.
Greetings from Marlies

We should not forget that people those days usually were not rich. Clothes were expensive and that´s the reason why many skirts and blouses were homemade. People from the countryside often did not have that chance to choose the color of material because shops were small with only a small offer. And even if you found brown velvet fabric for a climbing vest, the color could vary greatly. Patches and badges were often worn on civilan clothes until the RZM started its work. The shoes at the BDM were the most different . Among 50 girls you often find 50 different pairs of shoes.
