Great badge, do you have any more information on the recipient?

Hey Ben,

Is he sporting his TR uniform and awards? It appears as though he is. I'd love to see an enhanced scan of this awards if you would be so kind. please include the neck wear award.

Thanks,

Is he wearing an order of the Falcon? Well, what a great piece and wonderful connection to the real man!

Thanks Ben! Awesome stuff!

Interesting square pattern of some sort around the swaz he's wearing. It appears tat it could be a 57 reissue EKI. Not sure.

And yes, there are strings over the ek1, I guess he had a swivelling screwback....

Best regards,
Ben

Well, I guess that answers my question!

I hope I can help a little bit:

He is wearing the Hungarian Order of the Holy Crown of St. Stephen!

I think it's the Commanders Cross!

Here is the Knight's Cross:

Beneth the Ribbon Bar there is a Hungarian Pilot's Badge! Both items were awarded during WW2 not only to Hungarian Soldiers but also to the Axis allies!
