Original Hitler Jugend Motor
Class "A" Qualification Sleeve Badge (HJ-Prüfung
Abzeichen)- Established in early 1933 in cooperation with the NSKK, National
Sozialistische Kraftfahr Korps, (National Socialist Motor Corps), the Motor-HJ
was the earliest, and largest specialty section of the Hitler Jugend. The age
entry level for the Motor-HJ was fifteen years old and the first year was
spent on driving theory and practical mechanic training until the member
reached sixteen years old and was eligible to qualify for his driver’s
license. The Motor-HJ established the Motor Qualification Badge in three
classes of A, B, and C with each subsequent class being more complex and
detailed then its predecessor. The class A badge was the lowest of the three
and the qualification for award was divided into four sub-categories
consisting of knowledge of driving, vehicle repair, laws and road signs and
driving proficiency. The badge was worn on the lower left sleeve of the brown
shirt and service tunic.
The sleeve badge is roughly 1 7/8" diameter, pink
wool construction badge with a machine embroidered, eight spoke steering wheel
in silver/grey threads to the center. The reverse of the badge has a ribbed
tan cotton twill backing and the original white paper RZM/HJ tag with red
printed script and black ink stamped manufacturer’s numerical code. The tag
has both the red printed RZM logo and the HJ diamond. The original RZM Tag is
there and someone has used some glue to glue it down to a cloth, which once
removed it has torn some of the RZM tag. Excellent
example and in unissued condition. $75.00
Original German WWII Black
Wound Badge, 1939 (Verwundeten-Abzeichen, Schwarz)-
The wound badge was originally established on March 3, 1918 by King Wilhelm II
to recognize the sacrifice of those wounded during WWI. The badge was
instituted in three classes of black, silver and gold with the class bestowed
reflecting the number or severity of the wounds received. With the outbreak of
WWII, on September 1, 1939, Hitler re-instituted a slightly modified version
of the badge. The badge was awarded to both military and uniformed
non-military personnel and later to civilian personnel who received wounds as
a result of enemy actions.
The 1939 pattern, die stamped, magnetic sheet metal
construction, hollow backed badge with a black wash. The badge is in the form
of an embossed, vertically oval, laurel leaf wreath encompassing an embossed
profile of a helmet with swastika to the center, superimposed over crossed
swords on a pebbled base field. Most of the original black paint is worn off
and having been worn down to the base metal. The reverse of the badge is a
mirror image of the obverse and has a crimped, soldered hinge, a thin, round,
vertical pin and a heavy, soldered catch all intact. The reverse of the badge
is well marked with two faintly embossed manufacturer’s numerical code,
"65", both indicating manufacture Klein & Quenzer of Idar/Oberstein.

Original SA Long Service
Chevron (Winkel für dienst Angehörige der
SA)- As with other NSDAP organizations the SA introduced a Long Service
Chevron on February 3, 1934 to identify the SA Alte Garde, (Old Guard), those
personnel who had been members of the SA, before January 30TH 1933. The
significance of membership in the SA or other NSDAP organizations prior to
January 30TH 1933 was that it was before the NSDAP and Hitler held any
official power within
Germany
. The SA Long Service Chevron was intended for wear on the upper right sleeve
of brown shirt the service tunic and the greatcoat by all eligible SA
personnel. The SA Long Service Chevron was replaced with newly introduced Long
Service Sleeve Stripes sometime prior to the war.
The chevron consists of a machine woven, bright,
gilded/aluminum, waffle patterned, "V" chevron with two, interwoven,
narrow, parallel brown stripes situated near both the inside and outside
edges. The chevron does not have
any backing. The insignia is in
overall good condition with light age toning.

disabled as a result of war injuries. This form of cap badge was used
between 1937 and 1940, those after 1940 having a right-facing eagle.

and the Iron Cross set against a vertical sword, which has an oval oak leaf
wreath surrounding it. The front appears to be a subdued gray and the back is
