Dear Mike,

The first thing that come to mind when seeing your collection is: Thanks for sharing!!!

You have one of the BEST collection I have seen which is privately owned.
I hope people are realizing what you have just showed us.
Some of the items are unique.

Thanks again,
Pascal

Ps. Great Demjansk shield, my favourite type and with perfect backing paper, but what else can you expect in a collection like yours.

[Mike H]

Thanks ...

Thanks, Pascal ...

Gentlemen like you have made it possible for me to collect by being so free with help and information.

My best,

Mike

Back to Pilot Badges

Well, back to Pilot Badges again. Here is a BSW. Both the Juncker above and the BSW are cased --- but that's the subject of another thread.

Assmann Para Badge

OK, the badge photos continue. Here is an Assmann marked Luftwaffe Para badge I have had in the collection for a number of years. What I really like is how the badge has not been cleaned and the dark wreath remains.

PO's

Well, despite having several pilot's badges, the rare glider pilot by Juncker --- I still do not have a real Pilot/Observer. I am looking for a thin, early model to fit in a case which will only accommodate one of these. Plus, I have always liked the looks of these versions as well. So feel free to PM or e-mail me if you have a spare or two!

The closest thing I have to a real PO is this lapel pin, which is quite unique by itself. Note the "800" silver marking. Cool.
