Greek 3rd Mountain Brigade Award
Hello All,
not really being a collector of Allied memorabilia this badge came with a bundle of German items from an old veterans family.

It is the award that was given to all ranks of the 3rd Greek mountain Brigade for the battle of Rimini.
There is quite a lot written about this Brigade on the net and their chequered history.
Unfortunately I had to polish the 60 years of patina off the obverse side due to verdigris contamination but it will tone down eventually.
Comments or opinions welcomed.
