The Infantry Battle Badge (German: Infanterie Sturmabzeichen) is a German war badge awarded to soldiers of the Waffen-SS and Wehrmacht during the Second World War.
The badge was created following the Polish campaign at the request of General von Brauchitsch. After the final design had been selected from several proposals by the firm C.E. Juncker, it was made official on December 20, 1939, although the first presentation did not take place until May 28, 1940, when von Brauchitsch presented the badge to an officer and a non-commissioned soldier in a symbolic ceremony. The criteria for awarding the badge did not exist at that time, and were not formally defined by the Oberkommando des Heeres (OKH) until May 1943.
The criteria defined by the OKH in May 1943 stipulated that the badge could be awarded to all men in infantry, motorized grenadier and Gebirgsjäger regiments, regardless of rank, by decision of the regimental commander or a higher-ranking officer. The minimum conditions are to have participated in three attacks on three different days from June 1, 1940, on the front line and with an infantry weapon in hand. Attacks taking place between January 1, 1940 and May 31, 1940 can be counted, but only for members of non-motorized infantry and mountain infantry divisions.
The notion of attack includes primarily infantry attacks, but also counter-attacks provided they have resulted in close combat, armed reconnaissance and the individual attack of a vehicle with a close-combat weapon. Members of the medical corps need not have held a weapon, but must have protected wounded under fire during an attack.
The badge comes in two versions, bronze and silver, which are not hierarchical but depend on the nature of the regiment: soldiers in infantry and Gebirgsjäger regiments receive the silver version, while those in motorized grenadier regiments and reconnaissance troops receive the bronze version.
