Pilot's Badge
(Flugzeugführerabzeichen)
All active military personnel qualifying for the military pilot's
license received the Pilot's Badge. The Pilot's Badge was worn on the left
breast of the uniform jacket. In the event the recipient was awarded the Iron Cross
1st Class, the Pilot's Badge was worn centered directly below it.
There is some question to the exact date of the institution of the
Pilot's badge. The date of March 26, 1936 seems to be the accepted institution
date. |
