Holders of the Golden Party Badge, the Blood Order and the Coburg Badge


Forum member, J Temple West produced a documented list of recepients who were members of the SS that held the Golden Party Badge, Blood Order and Coburg Badge. Scouring through 432 pages of the 1938/39 edition of the Dienstaltersliste der Schutzstaffel der NSDAP list (DAL), only a handful were holders of the top three badges. Extremely low numbers when there are approximately 14000 members of the SS mentioned in this particular edition of the DAL list. There are only 450 known Coburg badge recepients and only 18 had all three badges. The image above shows members of SS Div Wiking, one of which is wearing the CB.

Following the above list, a colleague, Br. J. contacted me to provide further information. According to his list, the following persons held all three of the major awards. There is still the question of whether Hermann Esser received the Coburg Badge, although he certainly received the Golden Party Badge and the Blood Order. There may have been other recipients of all three awards who are not on the list below and some of the people below are also SS members as the above list from J Temple West.

    My husband has Karl Staudhammer's Golden Party Badge. He possessed the Blood Order, the Coburge and was also a member of the Old Fighters.
