The badge features a bunker on a hill and beneath, artillery coming from underground, the badge features intricately detailed barbed wire fence along the edge and reads: "ON NE PASSE PAS", there is a small pin hole at the bottom possibly for a patriotic charm.

CONDITION: 7 (Very Fine): Badge shows moderate wear, a small pin hole at bottom (possibly for charm), much of the nickel plating remains intact.
