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 hollow-type badge is executed in 'Zink' and shows great detail having a cut out swastika and wings, typical for this manufacturer. The medal still retains most of its original silver finish. The badge is not visible maker marked but can very likely be attributed to production by the 'Gebrüder Wegerhoff' from Lüdenscheid. The badge is complete with a functional pin and catch.  Nice original example!
