Hi Jo,

That may well be a "2" (1929) but if we assume that it's a 3 there is a possible scenario. Amtliches Nachrichtenblatt VII/2 from 10.2.1939 ended the period where HJ-Ehrenzeichen could be normally be applied for but exceptions were made for:

Ostmark
Sudetenland
Protektorat Böhmen und Mähren

and for Volksdeutsche in:
Former Poland
Estonia
Lithuania
Latvia
Memel
Romania
Elsaß-Lothringen
Luxembourg
Eupen-Malmedy
Südtirol
Südsteiermark and Südkärnten

For the above countries/territories the award of the HJ-Ehrenzeichen was on a case to case basis, at the discretion of the Gebietsführer and subject to satisfaction of the qualification requirements.

With this in mind, Willi Fiedler could be a boy who had been a member of a qualifying youth organisation for the required period before moving with his family to Karlsruhe and joining the HJ there in 1939.
