Waffen-SS, Nazi Germany, World War II, Prima Facie SS blood group tattoos were worn by members of the Waffen-SS in Nazi Germany during World War II to identify the individual''s blood type. After the war, the tattoo was taken to be prima facie, if not perfect, evidence of being part of the Waffen-SS, leading to potential arrest and prosecution. The SS blood group tattoo was applied, in theory, to all Waffen-SS members, except members of the British Free Corps. It was a small black ink tattoo located on the underside of the left arm, usually near the armpit. It generally measured around 7mm (0.28 inches) long, and was placed roughly 20 cm (8 inches) above the elbow. The tattoo consisted of the soldier''s blood type letter, either A, B, (AB?) or O. The discovery of the rhesus factor had been made in 1937, but was not fully understood during World War II, so was not implemented. In the early part of the war tattoos were printed in Gothic-style lettering, while later on they were printed in Latin-style.
