G537.)POLICE SLEEVE EAGLE, SUMMER WHITE: so-called traffic police sleeve eagle although I believe that it's appropriately described as being for the white summer tunic. Green machine embroidered details on white woolen felt underlay, Reichschutzpolizei (National Protection Police). Does not glow under a black light. EXC++++

To test for the presence of optical brighteners with a black light do so in a dark room and with a piece of white copy paper as a control. The copy paper will glow a fluorescent purple while this eagle's wool will reflect the lavender light.
