    FLL Pilot Badge - Unique

    Hi everyone,

    I wanted to share this unique FLL Pilot Badge! I see it in the thread history that it was posted before, but figured I'd share it after again after purchasing it. A thanks to Tom for double checking that this unique piece was legit.

    When I saw it, I recognized that classic FLL hardware as seen on the Heer combat badges, but of course this is not typical of their Luftwaffe pieces which makes this one so unique.

    When receiving it, I was rather impressed with the quality of the finish. It is still really intact, when we see most of these FLLs having theirs lost to time.

    Hope you like it!

          Hi Chad,

          Glad you were able to snag this one. Gorgeous original FLL with very uncommon hardware setup, for a pilot badge anyway. As you know, this setup is well known on other FLL badges, like their PABs, etc. so only a matter of time before we found a Pilot Badge with this setup. Great badge with excellent finish remaining.

          If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little
