The forge works in Ustron acquired on January 20, 1941 from Vienna-based Schrauben- und Schmiedewaren-Fabriks AG, Brevillier & A. Unger & Söhne is transformed into Schmiedewerk Ustron GmbH, based in Berlin. The plan is to expand the plant into a large-scale forge works capable of supplying Volkswagenwerk GmbH with the forgings needed for annual production of 450,000 cars after the war. This marks a return to the original concept of a vertically structured business model. The plant is handed over on July 1, 1941. By the turn of the year 1941/42, the factory employs a total of 687 people, primarily supplying the Reichsbahn (state railways) and the Wehrmacht. The volume contracted by Volkswagenwerk GmbH increases from 10 to 284 tonnes by May 1942. Full supply from the Group subsidiary is not feasible however.

These ones are like some Mercedes-Benz badges fakes and come from Poland. One or 2 weeks ago, the were offered in militaria321, clearly described as fakes, from a seller in Poland. If you have a look on the buttonhole fixing, you see that it will never hold in the buttonhole when wearing it.
