Offered here is a modern reproduction of the German WWII Infantry Assault Badge (Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen) in the bronze grade, produced as a faithful display and collector replica of the original wartime award.
The badge features the classic Wehrmacht eagle clutching a rifle with fixed bayonet, surrounded by a laurel wreath, accurately reflecting the official design introduced in 1939. The bronze finish represents the variant historically awarded primarily to motorized infantry units who participated in multiple frontline assault actions.
This example is not an original wartime piece. It is a post-war replica intended for historical display, reenactment, reference collections, or educational use.
