Sicherheitskräfte der VKPD

Formation
The Sicherheitskräfte was founded on November 13, 4323 after growing concerns of the safety of the VKPD during attacks by far-right extremists and violent protests occurring all across Dundorf, and after opposition parties rejected the VKPD's bill to the Bundestag to allow the formation of paramilitary organizations, albeit heavily regulated. The party purchased a non-profit, respected security organization and made it a semi-independent security force of the party, complete with its own uniforms, and rank structures. In the same year, the party appointed Tobias Geissler, the former Bundesstaatpräsident of Grozvic Muzelbergen as Chief of the Security Forces.

Effectiveness
The party has dispatched its security forces several times, and have resolved several disputes between protesters. The party regularly sends small divisions of 10 men apiece to guard its party headquarters, as well as their section of the Bundestag, an action which has merited some controversy from the opposition parties of Dundorf. Despite having a sizable 5,000 personnel active, the ShK has only 150 men in the field. In times which may merit it, the party may at times deploy more, as was seen in the recent student protests that occurred at the DPD's headquarters in Gayern, as well as Zerlin. From bipartisan organizations, the ShK has been seen as a well-trained, well-disciplined force who active works to protect the party of which it serves.

Controversies
The party's Security Forces have also been the subject of much controversy. The opposition parties of Dundorf have regularly labelled it a "paramilitary" organization, despite the VKPD consistently denying this, stating that they receive no military training whatsoever and are only armed with light, non-harmful weaponry, such as tasers. The party also regularly makes sure that the ShK obliges by its Security Bill it proposed prior to the ShK's formation, and quickly disciplines employees who do not abide by the regulations proposed.

Uniforms and Waffenfarben
The Sicherheitskräfte of the VKPD sport dark grey service uniforms, though are sometimes seen with light green and grey visor caps. During social occasions, such as a gala or party function, the ShK wear cream-colored, double-breasted jackets, along with their visor caps. The Waffenfarben of the ShK is a dark, green-brown color with brown stripes appearing vertically along the uniform. The Waffenfarben is most often worn while outdoors, typically seen by members guarding other party locations, such as areas in Northwestern Dundorf. It is also worn during cold weather.
