A nice little pin there Joe. I've seen them around a few times but have never really paid them much attention.

Thanks for showing it.

Cheers

Thank you Don. I never see them about. Nor have I seen the other version or versions. Did you tell me once that there were three?

Sorry Joe, been away for a few days.

Yes there were three slightly different design membership pins, plus an honour pin which had a wreath around it.

Cheers
Don

Hello Joe,
I must say, yours is the first stick pin of this type I've seen, I shall certainly be on the lookout for them from now on. I do however have pins and tie-pins from a similar WW2 organization - Here's a picture - V d H - Verein der Heimkehrer - Association of Home-returners ( POW's) as far as I know it was set up at the war's end.
Best Wishes

I ran across a like example to mine. Still have not seen any of the variants. Got to be out there somewhere. :)
