Hi Bonny
I saw that on eBay UK as well, I think I've seen that before and that it's real. Just IMO though,

WW I i would say...good?....i don`t no, but "Gott strafe England" was common in WW I.

I'm wondering, odal if the "strafe" sentiment/motto/ring inscriptions for ww1 became "gegen" in the airplane engraved rings of ww2?

I can`t remember a WW II item with this words, but a lot WW I stuff.

The "wir fahren gegen Engel(l)and has ist origin in the famous song i would bet wink
