A Flak-Kampfabzeichen der Luftwaffe by Adolf Scholze of Grünwald a. N. The Luftwaffe Flak Badge was awarded to those who had participated in 3 air defense actions (with a registered kill) or 5 air defense actions (regardless of a kill) or to the battery commander if half of their troops had been awarded the badge. It is constructed out of a two-piece die struck zinc base that has been silver washed, chemically blackened and brennlack coated. The obverse depicts an anti-aircraft gun that is surrounded by a laurel leaf wreath and is below/behind a Luftwaffe eagle, clutching a swastika in one of its talons. The reverse of the badge correctly displays; the crimped-on steel ball hinge, crimped on tombak wire catch and steel round wire pin. All of the components are in well working condition! It measures 2 ½ inches tall by 1 7/8 inches wide.
