Hi Paul, this isn't for a Bannfeldscher/GD-Mädel des Untergaues as those had a red cord around the edge. The cord on yours is green but the only cord with green was the green/white cord for Gefolgschaftsfeldscher/GD-Mädel der Gruppe so all we have left really is that the patch is a home-made or that it has been embellished with the green cord post-war.

INTERESTING thanks GARRY. Here is a pic of the reverse showing what I would expect to see for a badge with added cord ref stitching not trying to make it good but suggest maybe more going on here ? :canada1

As I say Paul, it could be period home-made but the colour is definitely not correct. If period then perhaps the wearer went for an approximation due to not having green/white cord. Difficult to know for sure of course.
 
Does anyone else have one with the green farb they would care to show us and in particular anything with some good provenance so we can go deeper into this :canada1
 
Lauri has one of the Gefolgschaftsfeldscher patches with green/white cord. Green/white is definitely correct for that level of medic.
