RAD Gau XXX

[Gwar]

I hope not to bore the fellow collectors here with my fixation with the Reichsarbietdienst..
or RAD.. The first photo is a recent find.. The difference is only the typewritten fonts to the Arbeitsman. ..The dates of dedication of award are the same..

I have tried the "12" step method... But... If it is within 4-5 steps I am "Hooked"... Funny this fascination and hobby... It grows a life of its' own sometimes... Hope all is well with you and yours !! G

Hi G! I must ask, so your award and pin belonged to a RAD man with grade 30 of 33?

I have only read about it in German... not always so easy

Sorry, do not know what is meant with grade 30 - 33?

Haha I understand why, I meant 30 of 33. But XXX is not the number of a grade / rank..
It's the number for Bayern-Hochland.

I'm sorry for my strange comments here in your fine thread G... Nice items!
I need to study up here.

Wewelsburg: Nobody knows all and you always can upgrade knowledge.
With this hobby one is always in the "stage of learning". Since my start
into interest of TR (1969-1970), I learn everyday! And this is going on
for about 46 years.......He who thinks he knows all, should quite!!

Until now I cannot remember ever having seen such document with
another year as 1937. Most are indeed from October 23, but in volume
5 for the series "Headgear if Hitler's Germany" there is one from March.

Wim. You are "Gem" I give my humble thanks each and every time you post !! Gwar
P.S. Hope your new book is a "Hit" as the fellow members of the collecting community have raved about and wanted such information that is credible and without a doubt "A life's work" !! G
