Summary edit

Description
English: Technische Nothilfe (TN, TeNo, 'Technical Emergency Corps' or 'Technical Service'), a German organisation and volunteer emergency response unit in charge of technical civil defence during the Nazi period.
  • Uniform insignia chart from Der Soldatenfreund. Taschenjahrbuch für die Wehrmacht mit Kalendarium für 1944, a 1944 pocket book calendar for the armed forces of Nazi Germany:
  • Flag emblem (Fahnen-Symbol), service caps (Mütze), belts (Feldbinde, Leibriemen), service badges (Dienstabzeichen), sleeve triangle (Armschebe), rakinsignia on shoulder boards/straps (Schulterstücke/-klappen) and collar patches (Kragenspiegel)
Page 13: The Ordnungspolizei (Order Police) was the uniformed service. The Hauptamt Ordnugspolizei (Head Office of the Order Polce) directed the following distinct forces: (...) Technische Nothilfe (Technical Emergency Service, TeNo) — technical auxiliary police service composed of engineers and skilled workmen, employed to perform restoration of public services both for the military and civil defence agencies in emergencies.
Page 60: TN-Vormann, Technische Nothilfe, 1941-42 The Technical Emergency Service (TeNo), which was raised in September 1919 as a strike-breaking organization, was tasked with maintaining vital public services such as sewerage, gas, electricity and water supplies. Like all German uniformed organizations the TeNo had their own ranks and distinctive insignia (in their case in silver-grey on black), displayed here on the field-grey uniform worn when assisting the Wehrmacht. Those illustrated, specific to the period, are the cogwheel left collar patch of both the junior ranks of TN-Nothelfer and TN-Vormann, with the threebarred shoulder strap of TN-Vormann; unit numbers —- a Roman above an Arabic numeral — were displayed on the right collar patch. The TeNo insignia worn on the field cap (inset) differed from the larger presentation on the left sleeve in that the eagle’s head faced in the opposite direction. The black left cuff title bears the organization’s name in silver Gothic lettering between silver edges.
