Dear Forum,

Thank you shamirnewell. I am a little confused by their uniforms. They are apparently wearing a feldgrau uniform with a characteristic headwear ( with a runic line pattern with small swasticas ) So they had two uniforms , the other one was a classic white with the stripped shirt ? I see they also have a rank insignia in the lapels.

Thank you

Cheers

Yes they would have the classic white nursing uniform and they had the grey walking out uniform. There should be tons of pictures in this sub forum on the Red Cross sisters. Try searching on nurse or DRK in this forum and peruse the images.
