Does anyone recognize this SS uniform?

Hi, I hope I'm writing this in the correct area. But anyway, this is my great great uncle and my family has been telling me he was in the SS Totenkopf but the uniform doesn't look like the ones I've seen. So, I was hoping someone may be able to tell me what type of uniform this is or where I could find out.

Your Great-Great Uncle is wearing the uniform of an RAD (Reichs Arbeits Deinst) officer....(Company grade but exact rank not clear).... Certianly possible that he held rank in the RAD and the SS....
Hope this adds alittle...

Agree with John´s ID . Here´s a link with more information: http://www.nexusboard.net/sitemap/15919 ... enst-t926/
Not much to say if you posses only this photo. No one can exclude or certify a SS membership based on the only image.
