Instituted on 1st September 1937 The Army Paratroopers badge only had a service life of approx two years making it one of the rarest Army badges you can acquire. The Army Troops who were qualified were allowed though, to wear their Army paratroopers award if they were tranfered to the Luftwaffe and continued to be Paratroopers. So far we have only encountered Original badges to be made from "Bunt metal" (Mixed metal alloy of zinc,brass,etc ) and Aluminium. There has been much dedate in the early part of 2001, as to wheather these badges exsisted. But research has shown that infact both marked and un marked Juncker badges do exist, For a full blow by blow account please take the time to read the following Juncker Para badge |
