'Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen'

Description

 General Assault Badge (Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen). The General Assault badge was introduced on 1 June 1940 by 'Generaloberst Walther von Brauchitsch' for award to support personnel who were ineligible for the Infantry or Panzer Assault badges. Criteria for award of the badge was basically the same as the criteria for award of the Infantry and Panzer Assault badges with the main qualification being participation in three separate assaults in a supporting role. The heavy quality zinc-type badge is executed in 'Zink' and still retains most of its original finish. The badge is complete with a functional pin and catch. The badge is not visible maker marked but can be attributed to the company of 'Gustav Brehmer' from Markneukirchen. Nice original example in good used condition!
