Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen by Ferdinand Hoffstadter of Bonn a. Rhein - Unknown Maker #10 (1.27.1). The General Assault Badge 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 stamped alloy 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 semi-hollow back reverse features two riveted on tombak kidney shaped plates that hold a soldered on tombak round wire catch and block hinge along with tombak round wire pin. All of the components are non-magnetic and remain in well working condition. There is minor zinc pest throughout. It measures 2 1/16 inches tall by 11/16 inches wide.
