Rad traditions cap insignia

[Gwar]

I do have a photo, But your question seems odd.. What do you exactly mean ?

[Brig]

I've seen a couple variants of this badge...enameled and non-enameled...I am wondering if there are images of RAD wearing both, or if enamel was used by RAD, and the plain metal perhaps actually an Infantry traditions badge, as your photo appears to be enamel.

I am also on the search for Wehrmacht members wearing such badges, to see if it perhaps was used by multiple units. Some Wehrmacht units shared similar traditions badges, curious if perhaps the same was done with this one

Brig, Here is some information regarding the different production methods of the Arbeitsgau XV Sachsen Traditions Mutzenabzeichen as shown by Wim. Saris. One must take into account that the regulations were not always adhered to as set forth in the "Verordnungsblatt". The Rad man wearing a "ORPO" staff of Norway Edelweiss instead of the RAD Traditions device could be confused with the "Gebirgsjager" Edelweiss. Stocks, transfers to other units or any other of a number of reasons, could be the result of many anomalies found in the TR concerning uniforms, awards etc; etc; Good luck finding the photo of the Wehrmacht you seek..

Recently added this example to my collection.
It has what I believe to be a period repair on the reverse for the attachment.
