Gordon Craig Posted May 3, 2008 Author Share Posted May 3, 2008 Ulsterman,I just went back over this thread again and I noticed that the first badge in this series that you posted read BM Rendor etc. That adds another badge to the series that I hadn't listed. Something else I have to watch for now. There is also a badge with a green centre and I do not know what the printing on the bottom of this one says.Regards,Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulsterman Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Nice badge!! I am pleased at how well made these badges are. The backings show that they were made for "rugged" wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seb16trs Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 hello, could anyone precise me the name of this military academy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Craig Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 Hi,The badge reads as follows at the bottom; "ZRYNAI KATONAI AKADEMIA" which in English is "ZRYNAI MILITARY ACADEMY". This was the senior military academy in the Hungarian military.Regards,Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seb16trs Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 thank you Gordon. I put it on my general service uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Craig Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 seb16trs,Good place for this badge. It would be worn above the right breast pockey directly above the button. A lot of Hungarian Generals had the Soviet Staff Academy badge as well. For sure if he was a two star general. If they wore both academy badges they wore the Hungarian one on the collar side and the Soviet one next to it on the shoulder side.Regards,Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Collins Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 I received this today... the Rendor Tiszti Academy badge. I believe this was an academy for Police/Internal Ministry. Sorry about the harsh lighting- the name plate is gun-metal gray which required the brighter light to be able to read. Would appreciate any info anyone can give on this. Thanks.

Gordon Craig Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 Greg, Yes this was the Police Officers Academy, and if I remember correctly, the school was located in Szeged. Civilian school badges came in a blue box. Regards, Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
