The Infantry Assault Badge (Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen) was instituted by Germany on 20 December 1939 to recognize the participation of infantry soldiers in direct ground assaults during the early phase of the Second World War. Its design, created by Wilhelm Ernst Peekhaus, features a Karabiner 98k rifle with fixed bayonet placed diagonally over an oval wreath of oak leaves, topped by the national eagle.
This example is made of zinc.
