Dave B Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 Hi all,Received this photo of a pilot today and was wondering if anyone can make out what type of clasp he is wearing...bomber,fighter etc?Any help will be greatly appreciated.CheersDave[attachmentid=50927]
Dave B Posted August 21, 2006 Author Posted August 21, 2006 bit closer,unfortunately can't get it any clearer.[attachmentid=50929]
Dave B Posted August 21, 2006 Author Posted August 21, 2006 any idea about the maker of the pilots badge as well [attachmentid=50930]...yikes,that's blurry
J Temple-West Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 Hi de diddle, DaveYou can just make out the arrow head pointing down, which would make it the Long-Range Day Fighter clasp.
J Temple-West Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 The PB....I would go for Juncker 2nd pattern.

Dave B Posted August 21, 2006 Author Posted August 21, 2006 The PB....I would go for Juncker 2nd pattern.The swastika seems to be sitting right over the wreath,is it possible for J2's to be like that??
J Temple-West Posted August 21, 2006 Posted August 21, 2006 The swas looks like it's almost at a right angle to the eagle. It could be that the eagle was pushed backwards through the wreath making the swas look like it's sitting over the wreath. As far as I know, there's no PB with a swas that big. addendum; Which might be an indication that it's the aluminium version.
Gene Posted August 24, 2006 Posted August 24, 2006 I can't make out the clasp but the pilot badge looks like the "FLL" type of late war badge to me
