WW2 German Bronze Infantry Assault Badge Maker Mark SA

The WW2 German Bronze Infantry Assault Badge, marked by the manufacturer SA, is an authentic military decoration awarded to infantry soldiers during the Second World War. Established in 1939 by the Wehrmacht, this badge was presented to recognize the active participation of non-motorized infantry personnel in combat operations. The design features an oval-shaped oak leaf wreath surrounding a national eagle and swastika positioned above a crossed rifle, symbolizing German infantry forces. This example is produced in bronze tone, denoting eligibility for soldiers in motorized units, as opposed to the silver version for standard infantry. The reverse side of the badge includes a functional pin and the maker’s mark “SA,” attributed to one of several firms authorized to produce this award. These badges were worn on the left breast pocket of the uniform and serve today as significant artifacts of military history and collectors’ items representing frontline service during the era.
