Wound badge in black miniature, 9 mm. The black finish is intact. Excellent condition.

Instituted (re-instituted) on September 1, 1939. The badge had three grades - black, silver, and gold. The badge was only awarded to military personnel, until in March 1943 civilians that were wounded in air raids also became eligible. The wound badge in black was the lowest of the three grades and was awarded for one or two wounds (including frostbite in the line of duty).
