Description

Dutch NSB-related 'Landwacht-V.C.D.' (Landwacht - Verkeers Controle Dienst) Cufftitle. The 'Landwacht' was a Dutch para-military organisation, created on 12 November 1943 by the German authorities. The Landwacht consisted mainly of NSB members, equipped with shotguns, they were popularly called 'Jan Hagel'. The Landwacht was first spotted on the streets in March 1944. They were mainly tasked with the surveillance of buildings, checking identity cards on the streets and carrying out arrests. Their uniforms often consisted of aa mixture ofNSB/WA clothing and German Feldgrau tunic/black breeches combinations. On their uniforms the 'Landwacht' Cufftitle was worn. This is a Dutch made cufftitle showing the machine embroidered script 'Landwacht' with the later applied addition of '- V.C.D.' which is the abbreviation for 'Verkeers Controle Dienst' (Traffic Control Service). The cufftitle is in full-length condition and measures approximately 45 cms in length. This is the first suchs example I've encountered. Very rare original cufftitle in good condition!
