Flak-Kampfabzeichen der Luftwaffe by Gustav Brehmer of Markneukirchen. Instituted January 10, 1941, the Luftwaffe Flak Badge was awarded to those who had participated in 3 air defense actions (with a registered kill) or 5 air defense actions (regardless of a kill) or to the battery commander if half of their troops had been awarded the badge. It is constructed out of a two-piece die struck zinc base that has been silver washed and lacquered. The obverse depicts an anti-aircraft gun that is surrounded by a laurel leaf wreath and is below/behind a Luftwaffe eagle, clutching a swastika in one of its talons. The fullback reverse of the badge features a soldered-on sheet metal hinge, soldered-on round plate round wire catch and round wire pin. All of the components are in well working condition. It measures 2 ½ inches tall by 1 7/8 inches wide. A nice example.
