Gordon Craig Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Aurora, I don't remember seeing this badge before but it looks like a cap bagde for a driver or attendant for a Red Cross ambulance. Possibly from the early 60s as it was common for cap badges of this period to have two holes in them to sew them to the cap. The Hungarian Red Cross has never responded to any of my emails asking for information on badges from the Communist period. I'll see what else I can dig up for you in my reference material.

Aurora Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 Hi Zsolt, Thank you very much for your help. I think you have a beautiful hat. I think it is scarce. Hungarian orders/medals/badges are not my field. I am focused on Soviet/Mongolian/Yugoslavian/ other European awards. Your help has a high value for me. Gordon & Zsolt, thank you.

Gordon Craig Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Zsolt, It has been a long time since we have seen each other or even talked on a forum. Good to hear from you again. Thanks for confirming the time period of the badge. Regards, Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
