Here my recent acquisition. To my opinion an attractive Fallschirmschutzen cloth badge. Obtained from an honest person I suppose.

It’s clearly a tunic removed piece, which I like the most. "A been there" piece. Personally I don’t like mint pieces which are not worn.

It’s a worn padded piece version. Please see also the images at the back.

QUESTIONS:

- possible to date this Fallschirmjager cloth badge with year(s) or a specific period during the war ?
- bought it as a textbook piece: how many different FJ cloth badge pieces are existing? Which specific model is this?
- possible to attributed this pieces to a specific cloth badge manufacturer?
- possible to ‘link’ this piece to the model of a zinc or Buntmetall Fallschirmschutzen Abzeichen?

Thanks for your possibly help, opinions and suggestions.

I post these images for study opportunities here.
