Hamburg Polizei Patch

Since I've been dragging out my old German police patches and badges for the blog these last few days, I figured I ought to keep on the theme and showcase one more patch.


This is a uniform patch from the old green style Hamburg Polizei uniforms.  The green uniforms, and this style patch, were adopted in 1975.  They are obsolete now that the Hamburg Polizei have switched over to the standard blue police uniforms.  I believe this was around 2007.

Here is a good web page with great information about the Hamburg Polizei:

Here are a few pictures of my Hamburg Polizei patch:



And to finish things off, here are a few Hamburg Polizei archive photos:
