German sports badge!
[edit]Hi!
Thanks a million for the ribbon. I am myself a judge of the sports badges, and is in general a medal-nerd..
I have been thinking about something. The German Sports Badge page starts like this:Italic text The German Sports Badge (German: Deutsches Sportabzeichen) is a decoration of the German Olympic Sports Federation DOSB, of the Federal Republic of Germany. It exists in a civilian and military version.
What is the difference between the military and civilian version? As far as I know the DOSB badge only exists in one kind (That may either be worn as a ribbon, badge or medal)..
The military German Armed Forces Badge for Military Proficiency isn't the same, but it's true that the DOSB-badge is a part of the military proficiency badge...
I think the line It exists in a civilian and military version. should be removed.. What do you think?

This is for your work in medals and badges. Especially the German commando course and Dutch Military Proficiency Badge has helped me A LOT, it's very hard to find info about these anywhere online.. Thanks a million.. Skibden (talk) 20:14, 5 October 2010 (UTC) |
<<--- A ribbon alternative for your barnstar ;-)
Thanks for your offer about more info.. Maybe some day I will write and ask. I am a firefighter and have a medal-fetish, so I can wear some stuff on the uniform. I also have my own website about danish medals. I am working on getting some european para-wings, most likely starting with the one from Holland/Netherlands..
I also myself have both the ÖSTA, DOSB and Bayern sports badges.. Skibden (talk) 19:44, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- I am actually a member of the European Paratroopers website you like to. And the their rival: http://www.europeanparatroopers.org/badges_fr.htm
- Unfortunately we have VERY strict rules about what medals and badges we may wear. In general if the badge isn't handed out by the minister/king/president of a foreign nation, we may not wear it (For example the DOSB-badge is official german and we may wear it). I have though about getting the Rescue Swimming badge, but unfortunately I am better at sinking then swimming ;-)
- Anyone can participate in the dutch para-training and get the dutch parawing (it is a civilian version of the military one, but is still approved on most uniforms). Organizer of trips to holland The training centre in holland Skibden (talk) 09:17, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
