Description

This is a high-quality reproduction piece of a Combined Pilot-Observer badge. In May 1938, during Hitler's state visit to Italy, Goering made Mussolini, a qualified pilot, a gift of this badge in a special version with diamonds. In October 139, Goering made this a status of official decoration. Only a small number of very distinguished persons received this rare decoration. The badge usually was worn on the left breast pocket above the Iron Cross.
