Description

Luftwaffe Heavy, Medium & Dive Bombers Squadron Clasp in Silver (Frontflugspange für Kampfflieger). The 'Frontflugspange für Kampfflieger und Sturzkampfflieger' was introduced by 'Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring' on 30 January 1941.

The clasp is nicely maker marked with 'R.S. & S.' indicating production by the company of 'Richard Simm & Söhne' from Gablonz an der Neiße. The clasp comes in its original case of issue. The case is in heavily used condition with some damage, mainly to the corners, see photos. Nice original late war set in used condition!
