After reading all the comments on this badge , I am leaning more towards this badge either being a fantasy piece or a period made unauthorized badge .
If the Torf Einsatz had utilized boys from the 14 to 17 year age groups then in my opinion they would have been conscripted from the Landjahr . I believe the Landjahr was formed to help farmers with seasonal harvest and farming duties . However ; a badge issued for cutting peat makes no since to me .
If anything was issued it problibly would have been a certificate thanking them for there service , not a cool looking badge.
Even those HJ that volunteered for the flakhelpers . Most only got a certificate of thanks , a few were awarded the flakartillerie cloth armpatch if they seved 9 months service with the Luftwaffe and maybe 5% of flakhelfers were awarded the Luftwaffe flak badge .
