          Very cool design... I looked into this further!
          This is actually from the 1920's-30's (Freikorps period) as Byzanti thought, and predates the 3rd Reich Bandenkampfabzeichen,
          so the partisan award was influenced by this one!
          The armband in the period image is another unit identifier... S.S. (sword) O.S.
