The SS divided Germany and the occupied territories into Oberabschnitte (districts) that roughly corresponded to the Germany Army's Wehrkreise (army districts). These districts were further divided into three or four SS-Abschnitte (sub-districts), which could be identified by roman numerals. By the end of the war, there were 45 sub-districts.
Members of medical units (Sanitätsabteilungen) under the command of an SS district (Oberabschnitt) wore a collar tab with an Asclepius rod.
Members of medical units under the control of a sub-district (Abschnitt) wore a collar tab with an Asclepius rod and a sub-district number in roman numerals.
Officer rank collar tabs were embroidered with silver-coloured aluminium wire, while Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO) and Enlisted Men (EM) collar tabs were embroidered with silver or grey-coloured thread.
Officer tabs were piped with aluminum twist cord, while those of NCO/EMs was piped with alternating black and aluminum twist cord. NCO/EM piping was eventually discontinued.
