The badge worn by the TK guy is the badge of the SA rally at Braunschweig 1931,2nd pattern I believe,it commemorated the 1931 Sa rally for more than 100,000 SA &SS members at Brunswick and was given official recognition on 6th November 1936 as a national award of the NSDAP.Tychsen wrote:Some really excellent photographs , the naval HJ , female RAD official , HJ Luftwaffe / flak helper may seem "run of the mill" but I think they are great photos , one of the last TK / SS guys has an unusual badge on his pocket.
You have to wonder "where are they now" , or what fate befell them...... for example were the brides made widows .... pretty hard hitting question when you look at the potential happiness had it not been for the war.
A very good selection, cheers Cam.

Does anyone know who the HJ RKT is? That is a VERY interesting portrait.
The kid in the Saharina is another good shot.

Re: Studio photos
interesting shot of the kid in tropical uniform,wehrmacht volksturm with ss insignia?????
say what??? doesn't make sense?
17 was the minimum age of recruitment into the ss and he doesn't look a day over 15. [were the volksturm short on uniforms or what?]
can anyone grant me some understanding of his possible situation????
