M-030 “Ehrenzeichen für deutsche Volkspflege 2. Stufe” (German
Social Welfare Decoration Second Class)
Per Hitler, as of May 1939, all Red Cross awards were superseded by this, the
newly introduced German Social Welfare Decoration. This being a Second Class
example, it would have been awarded to the Ranks of Oberst (Colonel) and
Oberstleutnant (Lieutenant Colonel). It is in the form of a white enamel, 52mm
cross with a National eagle in black with gold highlights superimposed over the
center (obverse only). There is no visible wear at all, with the enamel, gold
and black remaining crisp and bright! The reverse features a coke bottle shaped
pin on a rugged, block hinge. The catch is soldered directly to the reverse of
the badge. The case is included at no cost, as it is a POST- WAR replacement. A
beautiful example of this desirable award!
