The one on the left is from the Reichskriegerbund and the one on the right is from the Reichsarbeitsdienst.

The left one is from the NS-RKB [Nationalsozialistischer Reichskriegerbund, i.e. the National Socialist Reichs Veterans' League] and was used on the armband.

The right one is a so-called Ärmelspaten [sleeve spade] from the RAD [Reichsarbeitsdienst, i.e. the Reichs Labor Service]. This is the officers' version woven in aluminum thread (enlisted ranks' patches were woven in white thread). RAD-Abteilung 1/165 was garrisoned at Aue in the Arbeitsgau XVI Westfalen-Nord [Westphalia-North].
