Hi Don
I don't have the Hamelmans book. From my limited resources, I can't find anything that talking about the WWI BWB variations or any example similar to yours.
For your type of WBW, maybe you discovered the difference between this one and the usual type. I compared this badge with my WWI BWBs and SWBs. I found the following different:
- Helmet is different
- The upper rivet is not hollow
- Swords are much longer
To me, this piece may be out of my knowledge in WWI Wound Badge. Hope someone can let me learn more from this case.
Cheers
