?LW Unit Pin?

[Mike Kenny]

Hi,

OK, I realise this isn't a doc or photo, however it's not an easy item to place and you guys may be best suited to help. If you can think of a better forum, let me know and I'll start a thread there as well.

I received a small pin recently. It's about 19 x 22 mm (the latter being the length of the arrow), two-toned enameled and definitely die-struck (not cast). Construction looks typical German pre-45 and I'm sure I've seen this decive somewhere before (not in colour though). B*ggered if I can find it though!

Does anyone have any info as to whether it is military and if so what unit it might belong to?

Any help appreciated!

Regards
Mike K

7./J.G.51 had something similar same for 1./J.G. 20
but in both case bow and arrow are white!

If you move it I can be interested

Bonjour François!

Many thanks for the great link! Not a 100%, match so I'll keep looking.

For now, I'll be putting it into my small LW display box, but thanks for the offer.

Kind Regards

Hi,

Fyi, after some accidental searching, it seems this might be an Alitalia pin from the 1960s.
