What are these Pins and Medallion

[Chris Lee]

Might anyone out there be able to tell me what these 4 items are? I know the eagle is probably a WHW item but I can`t identify the other 3. The writing on the medallion reads Winter Sportler Schutz Patron. Is this suppose to be some sort of German sports patron saint?Thanks for any info!

What are these pins

It appears to be a medaillon/talisman.

I did a Google search for info and found that in ancient Germanic mythology, Ullr was the god of winter, hunting, duelling, willows and soil. In the 20th century, he was re-discovered by skiers as a patron saint. (Info from: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ullr )
Apparently, the name still known in skiing circles, I even found the website of a skiing school named after him.
Some very similiar medaillons are being sold by former skiing champion Markus Wasmeier, who is now running a farming-and-winter-sports-museum: http://www.wasmeier.de/shop/index.htm

HPL2008,
Thanks for the info. The medallions look almost exactly the same except newer. This helps out alot. This piece along with several day badges and a pocket full of third reich coins came out of a estate of a vet. They were in a plastic bag put inside a piece from a MG42.
