DDR V2 - Combat Groups of the Working Class (1953-1983)

This pack contains the Uniforms of the KdA from 1953-1983. I may make a pack depicting the 1983+ Uniforms, as those are the most commonly seen in color photos.

The Combat Groups of the Working Class (German: Kampfgruppen der Arbeiterklasse), or KdA was a paramilitary organization in the German Democratic Republic (GDR) from 1953 to 1989.

The KdA served as the de-facto militia of the ruling Socialist Unity Party of Germany composed of party members and politically reliable working people, based on dictatorship of the proletariat principles, to be deployed locally to fight civil unrest or invasion. The KdA was a civil reserve force tied to the GDR's Ministry of the Interior and the Volkspolizei, reaching 211,000 personnel at its peak in 1980. The KdA was disbanded by the Volkskammer after the opening of the Berlin Wall in late 1989.

This Pack Includes:

• A Uniform for all rank groups
  
• Historical Arm-Position Stripes

Uniform Design is based off of hours of online research, however, some details may have been missed or overlooked as not every source is 100% reliable.
