Can anyone identified what is the badge below the U-boat Badge weared by U-boat ace Werner Hartmann?

Thank you Marcus. What about this one on the right breast of Gauleiter Otto Treschkow?

It is the Party District Commemorative Badge for Saxony, Bavaria, Franconia, Helle-Merseburg, Hessen-Nassau, Magdeburg-Anhalt, Mecklenburg, Lübeck.

The identification help pages available at http://www.axishistory.com/index.php?id=61 would probably be useful for you.

Marcus, I couldn't find any similarity of the Third Reich decorations in your link with the badge weared by general Bruno Ritter von Hauenschild below (above the button). Is it foreign badge?

It looks like a Bavarian Military Order of Max Joseph.

This is the clearer version of the badge (I believe it's the same badge), weared by Generaloberst Eugen Ritter von Schobert. It's exactly on the same spot, above the button...

In this photo of Rittmeister Günther Konopacki, one of his badge looks like a Large Glider pilot's badge... Is it? Because if it is, it's quite strange, I thought that badge is a Luftwaffe badge?

Looks more like a Civil Gliding Proficiency Badge to me but the Large Glider Pilot's Badge was a NSFK award, not a Luftwaffe award.

It's the Knight’s Cross with Swords of the Prussian Royal Hohenzollern House Order.
