Theodor Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 ...and the thick frame, and the unusual nut. Anther unusual thing - double stamping /the popular Miloshev. His name peeks under the pin soldering on the pilot badge, too/. Very nice quality!
Theodor Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 These badges also had miniatures, for wear on civil clothes. Here is the miniature, compared to the full size badge:
Theodor Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Finally, the model 1916 Bulgarian badges also qualify for "Axis badges". Because these were awarded to pilots in the 1920's, till 1936 or 37. And some of the pilots, who had this type of badge, wore it till the end of WW2.
Theodor Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 And to prove it, this is one most rare photo - this pilot earned his badge in 1925. A model 1916 badge. But the photo is taken in the very late 1940's. Or even could be 1950-51. The same old model royal badge, with an early model socialist pilot badge installed ontop /or instead of/ the royal crown!
