    Hallo meine Kameraden..


    Nice WW II  swiss medal /badge


    Nice WW II  swiss medal /badge


    One of my last finds is this swiss medal or badge, which dispays a mother with child, in the back there are marching troops, with swiss flag, rifles on the shoulder, and the trademark swiss helmets. There is a date in roman numbers, I.VIII.1940, which is the swiss national day. The nazi-invasion was expected at any moments in this days, i guess that therefore it is a little belicious... Any opinions on this one are welcome..

    i dont know if i posted it at the right place.. sorry if not.

    yes, i realized that, that´s the price of having been rolling around through time & space for now more than 70 years. It´s sort of like an old man without hair..

    I cannot I.D. it, but if all else fails, you might even be able to have it identified by the maker. The firm of Huguenin (now Faude & Huguenin) at Le Locle still exists and still produces medals, pins, trophies etc.: Faude & Huguenin AG - Ihr Partner fr Medaillen, Abzeichen, Plaketten und Mnzen

    Vielen dank, mein freund..
    Cool info you gave me, and nice to know that the factory still exists. I think that it´s an 1.august badge (ist der schweizer nationalferiertag). it might have belonged to my grandfather, and with the mom on it it looks civilian to me. let´s see if i get an answer by the factory..
