Is this the rare SA beer drinking medal-given to whoever smashes the ball on his SA dagger the flattest? Mike

It's a Luftwaffe Air to Ground Support spange. Unfortunately this one is a post war Rudolf Souval made spange.

Rare SA beer drinking medal . . . good one! Big Grin I've seen it referred to as an air-to-ground support squadrons clasp, though I am not sure of its rarity, authenticity or the quality of its pin and catch assembly. Others will no doubt have something to say on these. ~Ian "Smashes the ball flattest . . ." Big Grin Big Grin
