Unknown Badge on HJ Uniform

[Gary B]

This badge has been posted for identification in the Luftwaffe section. So far no one has been able to identify it but one member posted a picture of it in wear on a strange HJ uniform.

Can anyone id the badge or state what unit the HJ member belongs to?

He is anyway wearing HJ shoulder-straps and a HJ armband. Maybe he was from the Flieger-HJ.
Normally he could wear the triangle on the left arm, but instead he wears a Luftwaffe eagle.
Maybe the kid is assigned to the airforce. Maybe he is a Luftwaffe-Transportbegleiter.
He is not a Luftwaffenhelfer, as then he should have worn the specific breast triangle.

The cloth insignia is not known too me, as far as I know the regulations out-of-heart!

Nice find Gary... the photo proves the insignia is from the period. He is also wearing a (C) badge as well; I have never seen a photo of someone wearing more than 1 of the proficiency badges. Also I have never seen one with a swastika. Hopefully someone with more knowledge on the Flieger HJ / DLv / Nsfk will reply. As the old saying goes ...a picture is worth a thousand words.

Thanks for the comments, Michael. Just goes to show there are things out there we still do not know about.
