I'm reserving my excitement until further analysis...but Im feeling good about this one after many comparisons to known originals.
Any thoughts or opinions would be appreciated.

Sorry, but I have to say that I'm not liking it. Compare it to the one below that I borrowed photos of belonging to Thomas Durante. He listed it as an old fake. Note the thinness of the wreath, the eagle details, the hardware set up, etc. A shame, as the Army Paras are Tough to come by!

I agree with William. Not a badge i would spend my money.

I also agree. The rivets and hardware are incorrect and the wreath appears to be made from cast brass or some similar alloy, but not zinc in my opinion.

I'm with the guy's, the award appears to be made from the wrong metal/alloy and the Adler's details are very poor. Leon.
