SS Chevron for Former Police and Military
The SS Chevron for Former Police and Military was a prior service qualification badge which was displayed by members of the Nazi Schutzstaffel who had previously served as professional law enforcement or as members of the Reichswehr.[1]
The SS Chevron was similar in appearance to the Honour Chevron for the Old Guard, but with a darkened center and a silver service pip. One of the more famous holders of the SS Chevon was Arthur Nebe, who had earned the chevron through prior service as a professional detective with the Berlin Police Department.
