SA Naval Sports Badge in Silver

SA-Seesportabzeichen – Naval SA Sports Badge

Introduced for the Marine Section of the Sturmabteilung (SA), this badge served as the maritime version of the SA Sports Badge. It recognized proficiency in swimming, rowing, lifesaving, and endurance at sea, all conducted by the SA-See-Stürme coastal units.

The design features an anchor superimposed on a swastika, surrounded by an oak leaf wreath, clearly symbolizing the naval spirit and strength. Manufactured in bronze or silvered metal, it reflects the refined style typical of mid-1930s SA insignia.

Issued only in small numbers and reserved for selected members of the marine detachments, the SA-Seesportabzeichen remains one of the rarest and least-documented awards of the SA structure, notable for its purely nautical symbolism.
