My friend asked me to put this photo for the discussion. He thinks it may be a Condor Tank badge.

That's a tough one Alex. Hard to see on the picture.
It's maybe possible but i think it's a 'Reichssportabzeichen' -
Look at the other medals, all WWI decorations. It's probably a first world war wound badge. It's on the wrong side if it was the tank badge anyway.Comment

I notice he was in the Luftwaffe, lessens the chance of it being a tank badge, IMO.

Thank you all! I tend to agree it looks more like a ww2 wound badgeComment

Hi Alex,
I also think it is most likely a wound badge, that was my first thought when I saw it. Also, if it were a Legion Condor badge wouldn't he also be wearing a Spanish Cross?
TomIf it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a littleNew Book - The German Close Combat Clasp of World War II

It looks too small to be a tank badge.Looking for a 30 '06 Chauchat magazine.Comment

Wound badge for sure.Comment

Maybe it's the angle but the badge looks a bit too tall to be a wound badge. I believe Imperial EK1s were about 42mm high while wound badges were around 44mm; this looks a quite a bit taller than the EK, certainly more than 2mm. I can't say for sure what it is, but maybe a DRL badge? May not be possible for anyone to tell even with magnification due to the angle and resolution though.
