infantry sturm badge

Infantry Assault Badge in Silver. The Infantry Assault Badge in Silver was introduced on December 20, 1939, by Generaloberst Walther von Brauchitsch and was awarded to all ranks of non-motorized infantry and mountain infantry units that participated in three different attacks on three different days. The emblem is made of zinc, as a result of which most of its original finish has been lost. The pin and clasp are complete and functional.
