Luftwaffe 'Fallschirmschützenabzeichen' (Paratrooper Badge). The Paratrooper’s qualification badge was instituted by 'Hermann Göring' on 5 November 1936 for award to Luftwaffe 'Fallschirmjäger' personnel who had written the required tests and completed six parachute jumps. This badge is a nice mid- to late-war zinc example. The badge is nicely maker marked with 'B&NL' indicating production by the company of 'Berg & Nolte AG' from Lüdenscheid.  The badge still retains almost all of its original finish and is showing very nice & pronounced detail overall. The badge has naturally a functional pin & catch construction. Nice original Paratrooper's Badge in very good condition!
