Motif:
Emblem of DDR police readiness units / KVP (Barracked People's Police)
Key Feature:
Historical insignia of East Germany’s hybrid police-military formations
Time Period:
Approx. 1952–1990 (from KVP foundation to post-reunification disbandment)
Context:
These forces handled internal security, riot control, border protection, and strategic infrastructure defense. Initially a precursor to the NVA, the readiness units remained active until 1990 under the Ministry of the Interior. The emblem was widely used throughout the GDR.
Historical Background:
The KVP was founded as a military-style police force in early East Germany and later evolved into the police readiness units. They played a crucial – and controversial – role in maintaining state control. After reunification, the structures were dissolved. Today, the emblem stands as a documentary marker of GDR security history.
