LW 'Fliegerschützenabzeichen mit Blitzbündel'

Description

Luftwaffe Air Gunner Badge with Lightning (Fliegerschützenabzeichen mit Blitzbündel). The Air Gunner Badge was introduced by 'Hermann Göring' on 26 March 1936 for award to radio operators, air gunners and mechanics who had met the required criteria. The Wireless Operator’s/Air Gunner’s badge was awarded on an individual basis and the main criteria for bestowal of the award was the completion of five operational flights over enemy territory or a minimum of two months active service. This is a nice early tombak badge. The badge naturally has a functional pin & catch construction. The badge shows great detail and the badge still retains most of its original finish. The badge is nicely maker marked by the company of 'C.E. Juncker' in Berlin SW68. Great and hard to find original badge in good used condition!
