Swastika badge

[Don Scowen]

I recently picked up this photo. It shows a Panzer man wearing a Swastika badge, the seller stated it to be a Frontbann but I'm sure it's too big for that. The one I have is tiny compared to this. I wondered if it was the Anhaltinisches Arbeitsdienst Abzeichen but I thought that was only allowed on RAD service uniform......

Any ideas please?

Cheers
Don

Blown up.....

This is the Anhalt Labour service commemorative badge. The badge is found with date or plain in three grades, Bronze, Silver and Gold.

This was my thinking Warlord, but wasn't this supposed to be only worn with RAD uniform?

Thanks for your reply

I think it's the AAD badge as well, but there's a very slim chance its the Sudeten-German Party badge of very similar design or its near twin for Karpathen Germans.

Thanks for your input. I did briefly toy with the idea of the Carpathian award but decided against it. I don't believe I know the Sudeten-German Party badge though.

I reckon it must be the AAD (Anhaltinisches Arbeitsdienst).

Thanks

My first thought was to go with the Carpathian German decoration.

All the best,
