Luftwaffe 4 Years Long Service Award
Luftwaffe 4 Years Long Service Award (Wehrmacht-Dienstauszeichnung). On '16 March 1936' Adolf Hitler instituted the Armed Forces Long Service Awards to reward military personnel for loyal long service. The awards were established in four classes for four, twelve, eighteen and twenty-five years service respectively. Nice silver washed fourth class award for four years service that is period mounted on a so-called 'Einzelspange'. The medal is having a nice miniature Luftwaffe eagle attached to the blue ribbon. It comes with its functional pin/catch attachment for mounting it on a tunic. A metal tailor-tag from 'Max Reuter' from Münster i. Westf. is nicely sewn to the reverse. Stunning original single mount Luftwaffe long service medal in very good condition!
