Description:
On November 23, 1939, German civilian occupation authorities required Warsaw's Jews to identify themselves by wearing white armbands with a blue Star of David. The German authorities closed Jewish schools, confiscated Jewish-owned property, and conscripted Jewish men into forced labor and dissolved prewar Jewish organizations.http://www.hist-chron.com/judentum-aktenlage/hol/EncJud_judenstern-d/033-armbandverteiler-m-armbaendern.jpg
