Blackshirtn.

Brit. /ˈblakʃəːt/, U.S. /ˈblækˌʃərt/
Forms: also with lower-case initial(s).
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: black adj., shirt n.
Etymology: < black adj. + shirt n., with reference to the uniform worn by members of the respective organizations (with reference to the S.S., compare quot. 2002 at sense 2). In sense 1 originally after Italian camicia nera (1922; chiefly in plural). The use in sense 2 is apparently unparalleled in German, where Schwarzhemd is attested earliest (and chiefly) in sense 1 (1922; after Italian).
