Red Cross decorations and badges

[HPL2008]

The last one for now, here are some badges for the Leistungsvergleich [Proficiency Competition] held by the DRK-Landesverband Baden-Württemberg [DRK State Association Baden-Wurttemberg] in 1974, 1976 and 1980.

I don't know how long these have been issued, but I have seen them for various years from the 1960s to the 1980s as well as badges for an "EH-Wettbewerb" [First Aid Contest] that are identical except for the inscription.

The badges are of nice, heavy quality (which is why I tend to believe that they were presented to successful participants rather than being mere day badges) and bear the maker's mark for Alois Rettenmaier of Schwäbisch Gmünd:

Excellent collection of Red Cross badges.

I liked the ones with the red stones in the settings.(Blutspendeehrenadeln)
Thanks for sharing them.

This man is wearing what looks like the Bergwacht badge that was posted. Was this a wartime or postwar badge?
