Reiterabzeichen & Fahrer Abzeichen

The German Driver's Badge (German: Deutsches Reiterabzeichen) and the German Charioteer's Badge (Deutsches Fahrerabzeichen) were sporting awards presented during both the Weimar Republic and Nazi Germany. They were established by the German National Federation for Thoroughbred Breeding and Testing in 1930 and later recognized as national awards by Adolf Hitler. Here's what you need to know about the Fahrerabzeichen (Charioteer's Badge) from World War II: The badge was awarded for proficiency in driving horses (with a chariot or cart), often in the context of professional or competitive equestrian events. It was an oval-shaped badge decorated with a wreath of oak leaves. The center featured a charioteer in a chariot drawn by two horses. At the bottom of the wreath was an enclosed letter "R" (for Reiter, meaning rider/driver, although the design was specifically for carriage driving).
