    Another portrait that I bought on sunday, just because I think the wearing of this badge seems a bit odd to me.

    What do You think ?

    Is it a forestry badge - an award ?

    Is it right to wear it on the military uniform, even at the place of a combat award ?

    Or do You think it is a Freikorps badge ? However I did not find a Freikorps badge that looks like this one.

    Thanks in advance for Your infos.

    Hi Robert, Nice picture, with a black wound badge too.

    I have seen those badges before!!!

    The deer with the cross between it's antlers comes from the legend of Saint Hubertus, who is now a patron Saint of the hunt.

    so a kind of membership badge of a Hunting-club?

    But I know also of a very special badge, designed by the emperor and awarded only to his hunting-compagnons, also royals. As I once readed that the king of the Netherlands had been awarded one, I have stored this fact somewhere in my mind. But as it was mainly to royals, I don't think it's this badge.....

    Gents,

    Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong!

    Kind regards,

    Jacky
