Re: Wound Badge & Infanterie Pin - Fake?
The wound badge is indeed post-war, manufactured by Souval, unless I am much mistaken. (You can tell from the "claw"-shaped catch.)
I cannot offer a positive ID on the Infanterie pin, but I think I have seen something like it before. It's definitely not a military badge as such, but something for civilian wear. (Like a tinnie, a donation badge or something for former infantrymen/reservists or even men who had volunteered for the infantry but not been called up yet.)

Re: Wound Badge & Infanterie Pin - Fake?
The Infanterie pin was given to those young men newly selected for that particular branch...there are similar pins for the other branches of service as well...Artillerie, etc...It's an early pre-war item, btw.
cheers, Glenn
