Badge "For Excellent Artillery Preparation".

[Chris]

I found this best Artillery accuracy badge amongst all the usual junk on offer...

The next scan is of the reverse, which shows a nice repair job, and its nice to know it was worn/won.

Hi Nick,

yes it is a scare artillery badge. The badge was founded in 1936. It is for Excellent Artillery Shooting. Maybe it was given at the end of a training course in a military school.

The are two variations of this badge (see picture).

The badge was awarded till the 1950´s. But post war badges have a different backside and no serial number.

Andreas

P.S. In my collection the golden one is missing :-(

[Nota Bene]

It's a genuine badge with original screwplate! Cool!

Just bought a postwar version of this badge, circa 1946 - 1952, as mentioned previously in this thread. Sadly the enamel to the star is chipped.

Cheers, Ade.
