This is a German WWII stick pin. These items were issued to military, civilian and political individuals for various reasons.
In the case of military personnel, a stickpin was given along with a full size award. The soldier could wear the stick pin
instead of having to sport the full size badge.
The civilian and political stickpins were usually issued as an indication that the person had attended an event, or to
indicate the affiliation to a particular group.
