MHSZ and earlier incarnations
The "MHSZ" was a paramilitary youth organisation not unlike the Soviet DOSAAF. The name changed several times:
1948-1949: MSZHSZ Magyar Szabadságharcos Szövetség = Hungarian Freedom Fighters Association. 1949-1956: MÖHOSZ Magyar Önkéntes Honvédelmi Szövetség = Voluntary Association for the Hungarian Defense. 1957-1967: MHS Magyar Honvédelmi Sportszövetség = Hungarian Defense Sport Association. 1967-1989: MHSZ Magyar Honvédelmi Szövetség = Hungarian Defense Association. The rather large, cased MHSZ badges shown below date back to the '60's. They read "eredményes munkáért" = for succesful work. I am unable, at this time, to determine exactly what the badge qualifications were and how they differed considering the obvious differences in design of the badges.
