thedawnpatrol Posted 2 November , 2022 Share Posted 2 November , 2022 I have inherited these 4 German Pilots Badges, what do the experts on here make of them? No intention of parting with them, but would be nice to understand which are original or not ….. cheers Jules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AOK4 Posted 3 November , 2022 Share Posted 3 November , 2022 There is a very elaborate study somewhere about these badges (I used to have the book, but not any more). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie2 Posted 3 November , 2022 Share Posted 3 November , 2022 The lefthand badge in the first photo is a Flugzeug-Fliegerschützen (≈ Air Gunner) badge not a pilots. https://www.ehrenzeichen-orden.de/c/erster-weltkrieg/fliegertruppe Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnr.ktrha Posted 5 November , 2022 Share Posted 5 November , 2022 There is an Imperial German section on the Wehrmacht Collectors Forum, bet someone on there would be able to tell you. I had a quick look, there are a number of threads about pilots badges, but I did not have time to go through them all. Here is a like to the website- https://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
