The Officers’ Badge of the Rifle Associations (Odznaka Oficerska Związków Strzeleckich), known as the “Parasol” (“Umbrella”), was a badge commemorating the completion of the secret officers’ school of the Rifle Association before the First World War, and was awarded by Józef Piłsudski to its students.

It was produced by the engraving firm of W. Miciński, to a design by Włodzimierz Przerwa-Tetmajer.
