Summary[edit]

Description
English: Photo taken at the Lofoten War Memorial Museum (Norwegian: Lofoten Krigsminnemuseum), Norway's largest exhibition of uniforms and items from World War II and the German occupation of Norway 1940 – 1945, located in Svolvær, Norway:
  • Nazi Germany (Third Reich) brownshirt uniform of a Obertruppführer in the National Socialist Motor Corps (German: Nationalsozialistische Kraftfahrkorps, NSKK)
    • Black leather motorcycle crash helmet (Schutzhelm/Sturzhelm), later design, with padded bumpers around and across top, ear and neck flaps, and a large metal eagle-and-swastika emblem (Nazi Party Parteiadler, "party eagle") and NSKK banner. (Schwarzer Ledersturmhelm/Sturzhelm mit umlaufendem Ring- und Kammwulst, seitlich mit Lüftungslöchern, vorn der aufgelegte Adler (Parteiadler Hoheitszeichen mit Hakenkreuz), mit gelaschtem Lederfutter, Ohrenschutz und Kinnriemen mit Schnalle.)
    • The second pattern padded crash helmet (Sturzhelm) in painted black leather had a small visor, chin strap and neck flaps. It was worn while driving an open-topped car or a motorbike, at parades, ceremonies and rallies. The helmet type was originally used by pilots in World War I, adopted by the Motor SA circa 1928 and later by the NSKK with the addition of a large metal swastika-and-eagle insignia and NSKK banner.

The NSKK (Nationalsozialistisches Kraftfahrkorps) was a motorized paramilitary organization under the auspices of the Nazi Party during the Third Reich. The members of this organization trained in the operation and maintenance of automobiles, trucks and motorcycles. NSKK members had a rank structure based on that of the SA (Sturmabteilung), and wore similar uniforms and insignia.
