Here we have a Minty General Assault Badge by Unknown Maker #11 in its original issue paper! The General Assault Badge (Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen) 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 struck 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 full back reverse displays a soldered on oval plate round wire catch, soldered on sheet metal hinge and round wire pin. It retains superb detail and a crisp silvered finish! See page 302 of "German Awards of WWII" by Heukemes. Accompanying the award is its original issue packet. Just wonderful!
