This mid-war Luftwaffe qualification paratrooper badge has a slightly vaulted design with hand finished diving eagle clutching a swastika in its talons on a die struck silver wreath comprised of laurel and oak leaves.

The Paratrooper’s qualification badge was instituted by Hermann Göring on November 5th, 1936 for award to Luftwaffe personnel who had written the required tests and completed six parachute jumps. Individuals who were awarded the badge were obligated to requalify annually in order to retain it. On May 2nd, 1944, award of the badge was extended to include Luftwaffe medical, administrative and legal personnel who had passed the required tests and completed one parachute jump.
