The emerald green stands for SA Gruppes Sachsen, or Nordmark. The SA (Sturmabteilung, storm detachment) was established in 1921 as a paramilitary protection squad of the NSDAP. The members of the SA were tasked with protecting party leaders at political rallies and meetings from the paramilitary forces of the opposing political factions. The SA was first utilized on November 4, 1921 at a meeting held in Munich’s \"Hofbräuhaus\" beer hall. The organization was banned after the failed putsch in 1923 and was reactivated in February 1925. Collar tabs were introduced on November 11, 1926. The left collar tab was used to determine the wearer’s rank, while the right one determined the wearer’s unit. This would have been for a Truppführer in the Sturm 23 of SA-Standarte R70. There is a very nice RZM tag affixed to the reverse. They do show some age toning and wear, and we believe this was removed from a tunic. Nice example. \u003cspan style=\"color: black;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Ruptured Duck, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51158864920882,"sku":"C-813","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1141\/9332\/files\/WW2_German_Collar_Tabs_SA_30003.jpg?v=1778791843","url":"https:\/\/www.therupturedduck.com\/products\/german-wwii-sa-stormtrooper-single-collar-tab","provider":"The Ruptured Duck, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
