J Temple-West Posted August 21, 2006 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Temple-West Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 The PB....I would go for Juncker 2nd pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave B Posted August 21, 2006 Author Share 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?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Temple-West Posted August 21, 2006 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Posted August 24, 2006 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
