Hehe yeah wings falling off would be a negative for everyone but the Japanese.

Since it wont let me edit my previous post (I assume it is too old) I will try a pictorial question for a change...

What badge is this...

German Medical Corp.

The SS anti partisan badge, in bronze. It is a very rare badge, so take good care of it if you're the owner.

Exactly, initially issued for anti-partisan work in Yugoslavia and some times refered to as the Guerrilla Warfare Badge.

You are correct that it is the bronze one awarded for 20 combat days for ground troops and 30 days for Luftwaffe crews, the one I have is the silver version for 50 and 75 days respectively "liberated" by an uncle in Trieste at the end of the war.

Which means you are up next.

Ok, when was the German city of Cologne captured by the allied forces?

I would hazzard a guess at March 1945

Ding Dong - I accept your answer LeEnfield. The city was captured on March 5, 1945.

Your turn.

Ok while we wait for LeE's question I will throw another one up...

1) Name the type of aircraft.
2) Name the unit flying it.
