rank

Does any one have a picture from NSDAP Organisationsbuch for 1936 (or other book) for lanyards worn by the BDM and JM. I have others but not this one. Many thanks

Interesting aritcle in the Fall 2009 Bender magazine "Military Advisor" by Clyde Davis. He corrects a statement in the "Handbook of the Hitler-Jugend" by W. P.B.R. Saris. In the article, Clyde Davis states that wear of the cuffbands with gold lettering and gold traditions stripes for certain...

Gerhard Bremer was a German officer in the Waffen SS. He fought during World War II and was awarded the Knight’s Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves for his extreme bravery and personal leadership. By the end of the war, he had achieved the rank of Obersturmbahnführer of the Waffen-SS, which...

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...

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."...

The post-1939 appointment system used by the HJ and DJ can be a little confusing so here's a small 'ready reference'. You can split the TR period into 2 parts for lanyards: 1933 to 1939 - Lanyards denoted rank only. 1939 to 1945 - Lanyards denoted appointment*. *BDM and JM lanyards were...

HJ Shoulder boards Hi everybody. Just purchased these boards and was wondering it these look ok? What rank are these? What branch are these? Any kind of date in regards to early mid or later war manufacture? Thank you for your help. JME

The postman was very good to me today. A Fähnleinfahne, an Ausweis, and this lot all at the same time. Woot.:w00t::lol::D HJ Scharführer lanyard Bann 499 Pinneberg HJ strap HJ Nord Nordmark triangle DJ rank patches: Hordenführer Oberhordenführer

I was studying some period pics from book today and I noticed a curious thing: there are some example of hitler jugend kids serving in Flak (still with black tunic) or FH with flieger tunics wearing the leader 's lanyard although they have no rank at all (no pips or litzen). The lanyard appears...

I can't remember where I copied this photo from but I thought I'd post it here with a little info. Another item to go searching for perhaps :) The Ünterführerfünfkampf was a five-discipline sports competition for those male leaders who did not qualify by virtue of age or or rank to take part...

Black Gebietsjungvolkführer lanyard and the special rank patch nicely shown here. He looks to be wearing the silver participants' Potsdam badge but no tradition triangle yet.

I believe that these 2 new patches are DJ rank patches. Pretty common I'm told. But what I thought was neat were the RZM tags. To me, the best part of these 2 inginia. Any thoughts on why one label has "L3", and one has "S3"? What does this mean? Is there a good source for decoding tags? And how...

I haven't yet found the full requirements necessary before a boy could carry the Bann, Jungbann, Gefolgschaft and Fähnlein flags but I do have them for the girls so here goes and there may well be many parallels between the boys and the girls: For Untergau and JM-Untergau the requirements for...

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...

HJ Shoulder Staps, an introduction Shoulder straps worn by the Hitler Youth served three basic purposes. They indicated the rank of the wearer, they identified the geographic location of the unit, they indicated the assignment designation of the wearer, and they indicated the branch of the...
