Summary[edit]

Description
English: Third Reich Shako Eagle of the Nazi Germany Municipality Police (Polizei Tschako Adler). Hat insignia showing a Nazi style German imperial eagle (Reichsadler) with swastika (Hakenkreuz), made of stamped alloy metal.

The basic design of the Hoheitsabzeichen (National emblem) of Nazi Germany was a spread imperial eagle (Reichsadler) over a swastika (Hakenkreuz). The police version was a swastika eagle enclosed in a wreath of oak leaves. This wreathed Polizeiadler ("police eagle") was worn as a cap badge and on the left sleeve by all uniformed police.
