The WWII German U-Boat War Badge - Classic Collector's Edition is a remarkable piece of military history, carefully crafted for avid collectors and history enthusiasts alike. This badge was originally established on February 1, 1918, during World War I, to honor the brave crew members of submarines who completed three war patrols. Characterized by its oval shape resembling a laurel wreath, the badge features a submarine at its center and a German state crown at the top, a symbol of pride and accomplishment.

Its significance was revived on October 13, 1939, with a new design reflecting the evolving naval warfare of that era. The modern version of the badge replaced the crown with a German eagle over a swastika and featured a more contemporary submarine design. Manufactured initially in bronze and later in zinc with a gold finish, this commemorative badge serves as a tribute to the legacy of the U-Boat crews during both World Wars. Please note that this item is intended strictly for collecting purposes and enhances any historical memorabilia display.
