Trooper_D Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Thanks for posting these, Nick. I am always struck by the elegant simplicity of the Order of Merit of the Austrian First Republic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

922F Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Nick, You've an Austrian Fatherland Front Badge (Vaterländische Front Mitgliedsabzeichen). Some claim there are political party membership pins while others say they had several grades representing different responsibilites in the party. Some are just the center device surrounded by the party's motto, some have an open wreath surrounding the cross, some have white enamel edged with red crosses, some are the same with devices between the arms, of the latter types some lack the center roundel..... Many types, seem to recall an early BDOS [or similar] journal contains an article describing them. On-line sources provide more info on the party and it's insignia.

Neil74 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Would really like some expert help. I have accidentally come across something which I believe is from the first Austrian Republic. Could any of the members shed some light? Much thanks for any assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
