Luftwaffe 'Erdkampfabzeichen'

Description

Luftwaffe Ground Combat Badge (Erdkampfabzeichen). The Luftwaffe Ground Combat Badge was introduced by 'Reichsmarschall Hermann Göring' on 31 March 1942. For award to all Luftwaffe personnel who had distinguished themselves in ground combat. Certain criteria had to be met for award of the badge with the main criteria being three separate ground combat actions. This badge is a nice 'Zink' example and still retains most of its original dark finish. The badge is not visible maker marked, it can most likely be attributed to production by the company of 'Arno Wallpach' from Salzburg (Austria). The badge has naturally a functional pin & catch construction. Nice original badge in good used condition!
