German Heer Fallschirmjager Award Badge:
Purchased: July 2007 - This is the zinc version of the German
Army Paratrooper Badge and was re-introduced in 1943 following
the creation of the 'Brandenburgers' the Army's highly trained
commandos. The badge was also used as a replacement to the original
aluminium badge awarded to original Army paratroopers. This
is one of the 'must have' badges in any Fallschirmjäger
collection. |

War Merit Cross 2'nd Class with Swords:
Purchased May 2007 - Constituted on 18 October 1939, for bravery
and service not in direct combat and as such, it fell just short
of the Iron Cross. The award had two variants: with swords given
to soldiers for exceptional service in battle above and beyond
the call of duty (but not worthy of an Iron Cross which was
more of a bravery award), and without swords for meritorious
service behind the lines which could also be awarded to civilians.
