Original German WWII Silver Grade Infantry Assault Badge with Award Document MG 34 Ammo Storage original paint and a fuzeOriginal Items: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of a German WWII Infantry Assault Badge, complete with its original named and dated Besitzzeugnis "possession award" certificate! The award document indicates that it was awarded to Schtzen Karl Haagen of Stab z. b. V. Pi. Btl. 195 (Infantryman Haagen, Headquarters, Pioneer Battalion 195). We have not been able to locate service information on Schtzen Karl Haagen or specifics on the 195th
