Das Goldene Hitler-Jugend-Abzeichen

With permission from Hitler on 23 June 1934, the Golden Hitler Youth Badge (Das Goldene Hitler-Jugend-Abzeichen) was established as an honour award to the National Youth Leader (Reichsjugendführer) Baldur von Schirach in recognition of leadership and long service or other special achievements in the Hitler Youth (Hitler Jugend). The form was a golden framed rhomboid having in the centre a golden square field with a black swastika in a red and white field. The right to wear the Golden Hitler Youth Badge was allowed after the recipient left the Nazi Party and no longer wore the uniform. The Leader of the National Hitler Youth could grant the right for the recipient to wear the badge indefinitely.
