Hi Chaps.
Is this badge real? Has all the traits of an un-marked Steinhauer & Luck. weighs 22g and measures 49mm wide and 40mm high.
The way my lucks been lately, i’m probably wrong.

I am visiting and stopping just outside of Hambye Basse Normandy in September are there any places worth vising locally or does anyone knoe the history of the area…We are driving across from Calais on the Motorway and will be going over the big and very impressive bridge (Euro bridge) near honfleur?
We did the Omaha thing a few years ago so didn’t want to travel that far but we are looking for military/historical places within an hour or so of Hambye, also would like to pick up a few military and other antiques/collectables so any fairs /brocantes in the area would be great.
Found this at a thrift store, imagine my surprise when I peeked inside for a closer look!:o( This is a reversible shirt with zipper, and judging by the zipper and fabric it is definitely from the 40’s! It’s interesting that the colorful patches aren’t as worn as the rest of the shirt, maybe he had this done at the end of his tour as a souvenir and didn’t wear it again? I just love the dragon.
This belt is for sale on the forum, but a couple of people i have shown this too reckon the belt is not a combat belt, rather a poliical or god forbid east german….
