Hi, I have just joined this site and as you can see from my very unoriginal title am a complete novice. My purpose for joining is to ask if any member knows the answer to the following?
My late father served on HMS Kempthorne and was present at Loch Alsh when on 11th May 1945 a number of uboats...
Hi all,
I received this week a couple of gifts. One of the is this lovely picture from a Rheinländer DJ with a lovely Tinnie Düsseldorf Schlageter 1933.
Well, it is not spectacular, but there are many details in this picture. Yes, he is from the Rheinland, as we see in his triangle, West...
Hi all,
I would like to show you my latest Tinnie. I got it thanks to Metallwarenfabrik. Thanks. And I also believe (as he does) that the Tinnie is not that common.
It is the 1937 HJ SchiLager from Franken. To be more precise, from 20th December 1936 to 10th April 1937 for Gebiet 18...
HJ portrait photo with many interesting details.
- Edelweiss on right breast pocket
- Nord Nordmark or Nordsee triangle
- Black mourning armband over his HJ armband
Any idea what the pin on right brest pocket is?

Here's another early variant that I picked up. It's a black chain stitched Rune on a blue field. It has some staining on it where it appears someone tried to color it a redish brown, or red.
So far the regions I've found that used this color combination are:
HJ Gruppe Nordwest (Koln)...
I got these straps from the same person who had the HJ Leadership ID book To ERTEL , who was a future SS Knights Cross winner .
These might have belonged to him .
Nice to see a pair of pre 38 straps with the original pips . Most pre 1938 shoulderstraps that have holes in them , have been...

I recently picked up this lanyard it measures about 30cm (11 inches), with a clip on one end. It is an olive green and under a black light it doesn’t glow. I have read the posts on lanyards and I am totally confused, any help would be appreciated.
What are the differences between the Hitler Youth (male) and BDM unit numbered pennants?
Some pennants are a black colour while others are the red and white design. I do not know which refers to the different youth organisations.
Thanks.
This Sigrune was on Manions a few years ago . I was looking at past auctions that I had bid on and found it .
I did not win this auction , as I was at work at the time the auction closed .
What do you think ? ..... Good or Bad !
Hallo,
Has anybody pictures of Austrian HJ shoulderboards from 1930-1933 ? Please post them or send a PM.
The piping of the boards must be: brown for Gau Niedeösterreich, brown-white for Gau Vienna, green for Gau Steiermark, black for Gau Kärnten, white for Gau Oberdonau, red-white for Gau...
This HJ emblem is on a small podium flag. (18" x 20") On the back of the flag is a set of SS runes, on a Black field. Have you ever seen this Diamond before, or is it a Fantasy item? Thanks
Hello
I have a question! From what one could rank black HJ-breeches are worn? From the rank of the Kameradschaftsführer?
I found so far only from the statement, which units were allowed to wear Stiefelhosen!
Looking forward to your answers...
Mfg Brian
I discovered this jacket 2 minutes before the ebay auction closed, so I had no time at all to do research.
Now I feel kind of dumb because I think this is not a real HJ jacket.
What do you think?

Hi
I have had this cap in my collection for many years now and I wondered what you all thought about it? As you can see from the pictures the visor has been dyed black, I questioned this when I bought it.
The explanation given to me was, when the regulations changed and the HJ cap with the...
