Polish Regimental Badges WW2

Hello!

I totally agree with Gary! This eagle was used in papers of 1SBS. It was not a badge. Cadet veterans never confirmed information that it was a badge!

Gary can you show photo of your mother with this pin?

Best Regards

I also think Gary is correct. I remember when these were not too hard to find back in the early 1990's; no one at that point knew exactly what they were. I think a clue is also evident on the piece itself: the pin on the back looks a lot more like something that you'd find on a sweetheart or patriotic pin than on an official badge.

So the photo was taken after September 1944.

Hello Rafal,
... Yes !! I must admit I was surprised myself.

My mother had always talked about the "badge" my father had given her, .. and I had assumed it was one of the parachutist metal "patki".

Then a few months ago, I was examining some family photo's, and realised that the badge was infact the "small eagle".
I then showed one of the badges to my mother, and she confirmed that this was the badge !!!

Gary
