District triangles were worn by all members of the HJ, positioned on the upper left sleeve, 10 cm above the elbow. They were introduced on January 1, 1933.
Introduced on July 17, 1933, members of “Banne” (banns) that had been established before 1933 were allowed to wear a silver-coloured traditional “Litze” (bar) at the base of their triangle. This was also allowed for members from the Saar Gebiet, Ostmark (Austria), Sudetenland, and Memel District, if they had been members of an NSDAP organisation prior to the incorporation of their respective area into the German Reich.
The triangles are black with silver-coloured letters. They were used to show a member’s unit. In general, they first named the “Gauverband” (higher district), then the “Obergau” (district).
Certain units were not classified by Obergebiet and Gebiet, but wore their unit name on the triangle, for example the different sub-units of the Reichsjugendführung (RJF).
