Stickpin - General Assault Badge
An Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen Mitgliednadel. The stickpin lapel variation would be privately purchased for everyday wear. Instituted June 1, 1940, the General Assault Badge was awarded to Army, Waffen-SS and Ordnungspolizei personnel who supported an infantry attack in three separate assaults but did not qualify for the Infantry Assault Badge. It is constructed out of a die stamped zinc base that has been silver washed. The obverse depicts a closed winged eagle, clutching a mobile swastika within its talons, above a crossed model 24 grenade and K98 bayonet. This is then all surrounded by an oak leaf and acorn wreath. The fullback reverse has a soldered-on knurled stickpin. The face measures ½ an inch wide by 5/8 of an inch tall.
