Complete German Uniform (Repro)
Sturmbannführer was a Nazi Party paramilitary rank equivalent to major that was used in several Nazi organizations, such as the SA, SS, and the NSFK. Translated as assault (or storm) unit leader (Sturmbann being the SA and early SS equivalent to a battalion), the rank originated from German shock troop units of the First World War. The SA title of Sturmbannführer was first established in 1921. In 1928, the title became an actual rank and was also one of the first established SS ranks. The insignia of a Sturmbannführer was four silver pips centered on a collar patch.
The rank rated below Standartenführer until 1932, when Sturmbannführer became subordinate to the new rank of Obersturmbannführer. In the Waffen-SS, Sturmbannführer was considered equivalent to a major in the German Wehrmacht. What I have is an East German uniform transformed into a reproduction Waffen SS highly decorated Major. Collectors and reenactors can display or wear this piece.
