Organisation Todt, abbreviated OT, was a paramilitary construction organisation named after its founder, Fritz Todt. It was founded in 1938 and was responsible for a huge range of engineering projects both in Nazi Germany and in German occupied territories during World War II. Only a small number of OT labourers were uniformed and salaried German nationals, while large numbers during the war years were made up of forced labourers. Members of OT were to wear distinct uniforms , but due to problems with availability, they often wore a mixture of different uniform patterns.
