General assault badge

The General Assault Badge aka Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen is military decoration awarded during ww2 to personnel of the German Army , Waffen ss and Ordung Polizei (order police) who supported an infantry attack but were not part of specific infantry units and therefore did not qualify for the Infranty assault badge .

It could also be awarded to medical personnel attending to battlefield casualties in "close combat conditions".Prior to the introduction of the Tank Destruction Badge, the General Assault Badge could be conferred for the single-handed destruction of tanks or armoured vehicles.
