Very Funny Guys......I thought about correcting that. I am surprised it took that long for a wise cracker to surface.........and did they not have a susidiary in one of Berlins outlying suburbs

No, what Mark brought up is very interesting. Here's a 'hybrid' late-war Juncker flak badge with someone else's hardware...could this have been made using Juncker's old dies, and another firm's hardware?

Juncker

Hello,


Very interesting, iff the Juncker factory was bombed out you can be pretty sure quite a bit was destroyed.

And my friends something interesting to note in regards of a Juncke rproduct : the C.E.Juncker made glider pilots badge.

The training etc ... stopped officially during september 1944 => meaning that iff nobody graduate anymore there was no more need for a glider pilots badge to be produced. So iff the Juncker factory was bombed out in december 1944 and there was no more need for a certain badge.

Youc an be pretty certain that no other Die's where made by this company to produce such a badge => simple because the demand was gone.

So the one and only glider pilots badges produced by C.E.Juncker should all feature the same characteristics, etc ... etc ...

Cordial greetings,
