      Many thanks for all the compliments! I appreciate it.

      I have always specialized in Luftwaffe flight-related material and to try for all the clasps seemed the natural thing to do. These guys had the philosophy "fly until you die". These clasps are the tangible indicator, taken collectively, of thousands of real combat missions. It's hard for me to imagine that these clasps don't represent lots of EKI's, DK's, RK's and higher awards.

      As to what's left....not a week goes by that I don't see something on this Forum I would love to have in my collection. Right now, I'm working on KM material (one of my other passions) and also trying to solve some of the mysteries (and there are still some!) of RK's.

                    Leroy,

                    Outstanding. What else can I say? One of the most underrated and least understood of all badges to boot.

                      I really do appreciate all the nice comments!

                      Stephen Previtera told me at the SOS that he expects the flight clasp book to be out this Summer. I hope this will really excite interest in these badges and put them on the level they need to be. To me, they are every bit as exciting as the numbered assault badges (and, in fact, some are much more rare).
