Does anyone know what it would of taken to be nominated to became the Bann flag bearer of a HJ Bann . Would the youth have to obtain a certain rank ? Would it be given to the youth who had collected the most donations within the year ? Or the best Athelete ? I just want to know what it...

Admin edit: Subsequent to this thread in 2016 a HJ-Wiki was installed on the forum. This includes a page dedicated to the HJ knife which now includes a lot of the information given by Mike below plus a load more. The aim of this thread is to show which areas need to be examined when...

Looking through some books, and even on films, I've seen some flags that I'm curious about. Other than the standard HJ flag (Red/White with Swas in middle) and the black DJ Rune Flag, I've seen ones that have a eagle across them. They look like they would be red/white in color. One book shows...

some more hj items from my collection

Guys, Here's a true story for you. The story spans 15 years and is about one piece of cloth. Enjoy. I sold this bannfahne standart bearer's insig [see photo below] back in 93 when I sold my first hj collection. Over the years, I would think, "Man I wish I hadn't sold this [or that] piece."...

Hello Three early knives/daggers of a friend collector. Never seen in real before, i'd like to start a collection of knives with those here : Lauri Admin Edit: see also THIS thread for more on these very controversial knives. Despite what a prominent US-based dealer says, there is no proof...

Following up on my earlier thread about HJ drums, I found that, according to Angolia's books, the standard military snare drum was 36 cm in diameter. However, the HJ drum was smaller although not specified in the book. My drum, which I think is HJ, has a diameter of 30 cm which makes sense in...

HJ Kameradschaftsführer (in the appointment of Gefolgschaftsführer). Bann standard bearer for Bann 560 HJ Rottenführer (Verwalter) in the appointment of Kameradschaftsführer Does anyone else play around with Photoshop adding colour to old photos? If I find a particularly clear one I can't...

Here's a pretty neat paper item. It's a standard size travel brochure, with Hiking in Germany on the front side. It's all in English. I guess it's not technically an HJ item, but the Marine DJ cover art work is great! And it is illustrated throughtout with photos of BDM and HJ youth. Tells all...

This one belongs to Railhouse who asked me to upload the pictures. Wonderful isn't it :) It's for Bann 355 Ahr (later Ahrweiler).

As with the special patches for the Bann and Jungbann standard bearers the patches for the lower formations of Gefolgschaft and Fähnlein were also introduced in 1938. The procedure was the same and each standard bearer received three patches from the Bann which were to be returned when he was...

The Hitler Youth standard bearer gorget (for Bann standard bearers only) and special arm patch for Bann and Jungbann standard bearers were introduced in July 1938. The arm patch was the same for both the Bann and Jungbann. The standard bearer was only given the gorget for the period during...

I was asked a question through PM and thought it might be of use to some of you if I posted the answer here too. The Marine-HJ wore a side cap when wearing a uniform called the 'Fahrtenanzug' (camp uniform). It was the standard HJ summer cap but with golden yellow identification cord...

Can someone please show a genuine example and compare it with some known fakes? Obverse and reverse? I see these for sale often, but wonder if they are genuine or not. Regards Russ

HI. I'm looking for any info or comments on these HJ shoulder boards. The boards seem to be of standard HJ board dimensions, with what looks like black (?) base material, piped in green, and silver-grey. The letter "G" and the numeral "24" is done in silver bullion wire. The reverse looks very...

Here's a little info on these badges. Some of it may be new to some of you. The Potsdam badge in silver was the one worn by those who had been active participants on the day. The bronze version was available for purchase by spectators/non-participants1,2 and was also sold prior to the event...

Has anyone ever seen one of these? They are described in the regulations as being the same as the standard Gefolgschaft flag but with the corner patch reversed i.e white stitched letters on black instead of black on white. Not all Banne were able to raise a full SRD-Gefolgschaft so there...
