WW2 German Veterans Organization NSKOV Stick Pin

The WW2 German Veterans Organization NSKOV Stick Pin is an original insignia associated with the National Socialist War Victim’s Care (NSKOV), an organization established to support wounded and disabled German veterans of the First World War. This stick pin was awarded to members of the NSKOV to denote affiliation and service. The design typically features the organization’s emblem, often incorporating the NSKOV initials and symbolic imagery such as the Iron Cross and laurel leaves. The stick pin was intended for civilian wear, supporting discretion while allowing veterans to display their connection to the organization. Made from metal alloy with a pin back for attachment, these insignia were worn on the lapel. The NSKOV played a prominent role in the social and welfare efforts for former military personnel in Germany during the interwar and World War II periods. This piece represents a tangible element of veterans’ history and German military-related organizations of the era.
