Gentlemen, what is the small decoration? It doesn't seem to be anything from the Deutscher Offizier-Bund or the Stahlhelmbund. 

Thanks!

Possibly something from a Jagdverein?

It’s a Breslau “Der Stahlhelm Reichs-Frontsoldanten-tag” 30/31 Mai meeting badge 

 

A few others in the photo can be seen wearing it

Crown Prince Wilhelm is wearing a variation of this badge, pictured below 

 

 

best regards,

Dan

Phantastic, Dan, thanks so much! I have never heard of that badge. So it is possible/probable, that the picture is from that meeting/convention and he received it shortly before.

Many greeting
