Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Warschau 1944, a Warsaw shield' planned to be given as a campaign arm shield, a military decoration/award of the Third Reich (Nazi Germany), to the troops that put down the Polish Insurrection (Warsaw Uprising) 1 August – 2 October 1944, but the badge was never distributed.

A number of Third Reich military awards were approved and designed but were never officially manufactured or distributed. They have been extensively faked since 1945. See Military History article on 'Fantasy Nazi awards'.

Item on display at Hjemmefrontmuseet Rakkestad, a local World War II museum in Norway.


Norsk bokmål: Foto tatt sommeren 2021 i Hjemmefrontmuseet Rakkestad, et lokalt, krigshistorisk museum i Rakkestad i Østfold. Utstillingene omfatter rundt 3500 gjenstander fra Norge under andre verdenskrig, det nasjonalsosialistiske Tysklands okkupasjon av landet, hjemmefronten og motstandskampen i perioden 1940–45 og fra tida like etter krigen:
  • Warschau 1944 fra museets samling av tyske medaljer og utmerkelser. «Warszawa-skjoldet» er et kampanjearmskjold, en militær dekorasjon fra det nazistiske Tyskland, som ble planlagt for tysk deltakelse i kampene under Warszawaoppstanden Warszawa-oppstanden høsten 1944. Merket ble imidlertid aldri delt ut til de tyske soldatene. Flere militære utmerkelser fra Det tredje riket ble utformet, men enten aldri blitt produsert eller distribuert. Forfalskningen av merkene etter krigen har vært omfattende.
