Badge "Red Youth Guard". - CtahhR - 09-07-2011
Here is the Badge "Red Youth Guard" (붉은청년근위대). The Red Youth Guard is the youth branch of the Korean's People Army for students aged 14-16 years old. The movement was founded 12th September 1970 and provides an induction to Military service. The Red Youth Guard can be seen parading frequently in Pyongyang.
This is the first type of the badge constructed from copper.
