Re: Panzer Assault 25 and Luftwaffe Pilot badge
Sorry for my short answer,but Osang was made no pilot badges and Assman was made no numbered PAB.Thats the most simple way to see,that those badges are fakes.Sorry,no chance.

Re: Panzer Assault 25 and Luftwaffe Pilot badge
Thanks, appreciate the quick response, I was pretty young at the time so no loss monetarily, and I didn't want to put them out there if they were not correct. I had suspicions about the Pilot badge, but didn't know on the Panzer.
thanks, Nick

Re: Panzer Assault 25 and Luftwaffe Pilot badge
I agree,sorry. The PKA is especially bad,as already stated Assman never made numbered PKA's. The eagle,rivets,hinge & catch (basically all the hardware is wrong). Stewy

Hi Nick and welcome.
Unfortunately I have to agree with Joachim and Stewy for the reasons they state. Neither badge was made by the respective manufacturers. Do you have any more pieces?
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

Thanks All, I appreciate your responses, I only wish there were forum boards like this at the time, so much more information is now available, there were only a handful of reference books and they were mostly devoted to blades. I have some cuff titles as well that I posted a similar information request under SS because there were a couple of SS cuff titles in the mix, turned out they were bad as well, but I think the Grossdeutschland and Fallschirm-Division may end up being OK. I still think there may be a few more pieces coming out, I'm doing this long distance with my folks so it's a series of surprises as they unpack old boxes in storage.
