This about the GDBA badge:Originally posted by RonR View Post
The Verkehrsgewerkschaft GDBA ("transport union GDBA") was a German trade union.
It was founded on May 23, 1948 in North Rhine-Westphalia as "Gewerkschaft Deutscher Bundesbahnbeamten und Anwärter" and was a member of the German Civil Service Federation.Comment

very nice display of an under-appreciated period. I've just started collecting Reichswehr/Reichsheer insignia as a natural extension of my interest in Freikorps and would love to find something like this. congrats!Comment

I agree - interesting period and indeed underappreciated. Still too much Imperial to collect for me to go Reichswehr but I understand the interest as it is a nice change over period from Imperial to TR although the Reichswehr period style is clearly more closely aligned to TR than Imperial.Originally posted by bolewts58 View PostComment
