German Luftwaffe War Badges
In our Luftwaffe Awards category, discover an exclusive selection of original Luftwaffe awards and historical military orders from the Third Reich era (1933–1945). The Luftwaffe awards encompass a wide range of honors for bravery, merits, and combat deployments in the air force, including the Pilot's Badge, the Paratrooper Badge, the Anti-Aircraft Badge, the Ground Assault Badge of the Luftwaffe, the Operational Flying Clasp, the Iron Cross (in various classes). These decorations were instituted by Adolf Hitler and the Presidential Chancellery to honor pilots, aircrew, ground personnel, and anti-aircraft units of the German Luftwaffe, reflecting the military hierarchy from basic badges to higher orders. Historically, millions were awarded by 1945, e.g., approx. 450,000 Operational Flying Clasps in various grades (Bronze, Silver, Gold). Variants include materials such as silver, bronze, zinc, or enamel, with or without swords, in grades (e.g., Gold for combat bravery) and special forms like cloth versions or pendants.
