German Naval Front Clasp, 1957 pattern version authorised for post-WWII wear by Bundeswehr veterans.
This item is a German Naval Front Clasp (Marine-Frontspange) in the 1957 pattern, issued for wear by West German Bundeswehr veterans who had previously earned the original WWII award.
In 1957, West Germany re-authorised certain wartime decorations in a de-Nazified form so that veterans could legally wear them on their Bundeswehr uniforms. The 1957 Naval Front Clasp retains the classic wreath and central motif, but without any prohibited symbols.
This clasp was awarded to recognise:
Front-line naval combat service
Commitment and operational endurance within Kriegsmarine units
Eligibility based on original WWII qualification
The 1957 version is a sought-after collectable because it represents both wartime service and post-war German military history.
