Laurence Strong Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 The reverse. I am not sure what is issued these days, I got these prior to the unification of the 2 germany's. I think that this might be an early issue also, by the design of the clasp and the MM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurence Strong Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 The MM, if anyone recognises it I would be interested in knowing who they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Danner Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 It is a Leistungsabzeichen in Gold, the highest of three classes (gold, silver and bronze). The Leistungsabzeichen is a qualification/achievement badge. It is given based on testing in a list of military skills, including marksmanship, general military knowledge and physical fitness.There are a large number of makers.

I only wish to high heaven that I'd not listened to others back in the day and had bought up all the 57's I could get my hands on! But I'm certainly glad to see so much of it being shown here. Sure do hope some references start coming out on these 57's... it's high time. Anyhow just wanted to say thanks for the great show! Keep em coming!
