Flakabzeichen
I was at a Jubilee party last night and the host showed me his collection of British medals. Amongst them was this Juncker Flak badge.
As I dont know much about them I said I would get it checked out here.
Pin is missing but the quality looks ok
Any comments welcome
Many thanks
Nick

Looks fine to me. Pity about the pin being broken.

Original Juncker badge, interestingly the same as mine shown on the forum a couple of times with a snapped or cut pin. I don't know if it's myth or reality that the Brits were only allowed to take broken badges so pins were often cut off to comply.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Re: Flakabzeichen
Thank you both for the confirmation
Interesting theory about the pin Adrian
