Stogieman Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 From what I can see, this Bavarian Pilot Badge is probably real.... unfortunately the engraving is not...
Chris Boonzaier Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Seems to be a rather meaningless thing to engrave...Its not a sector i have a lot of interest in... but I think the Isonzo Schlacht is basically a 1917 event? The Germans only arriving in the area at this stage?
Ed_Haynes Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Yeah. If real, it pretty much destroys an interesting -- and valuable -- piece, converting it into scrap metal.
Guest Rick Research Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I suppose one could not know how to spell "Isonzo" in the midst (1917) of ongoing operationsBUTsince Italy only declared war on Germany on 28 August 19161915 doesn't make any sense, does it?Greed and stupidity!
VtwinVince Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Agreed, this badge is identical to a genuine engraved and cased example I had many years ago.
