The Volkssturm  was a national militia established by Nazi Germany during the last months of World War II.  It was not set up by the German Army, the ground component of the combined German Wehrmacht armed forces, but by the Nazi Party on the orders of Adolf Hitler, and its existence was only officially announced on 16 October 1944.  It was staffed by conscripting males between the ages of 16 and 60 years who were not already serving in some military unit. The Volkssturm comprised one of the final components of the total war promulgated by Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels, part of a Nazi endeavor to overcome their enemies’ military strength through force of will.

The Volkssturm “uniform” was only a black armband with the German words Deutscher Volkssturm  Some variants of the above-mentioned armband worn by Volkssturm members were simply red or yellow cloth-bands with “Deutscher Volkssturm Wehrmacht” printed in black on them. On top of the identification armbands, there were black rank-patches, either with or without silver pips, worn on the collar of the Volkssturm members’ uniform.
