2 German Empair Aviators Badges

1.Navy Pilot
 of seaplanes
 gold colored
 Weight: about 50g
 Size about.  73mm
 The award for seaplane pilots was established on May 31, 1913, the year before the outbreak of the First World War, with the highest cabinet order by Kaiser Wilhelm II.  The last emperor of the German Reich regarded the navy as an important instrument on the desired path to world power.  Until 1919, the decoration was awarded to officers, non-commissioned officers and enlisted men who were on active duty.  The constantly checked top performer had to have been trained at a naval air station and have provided proof of his or her qualifications as a naval pilot.
 The gold-colored badge has the shape of a wreathed oval surmounted by the crown.  The wreath is tied at the bottom with a bow and consists half of oak leaves and half of laurel.  The symbolic eagle flies towards the sun: This is to be interpreted as an indication of the desired global empire.  The island of Helgoland, which is also shown, was one of the most important naval bases at the time.

2. Aviator Commemorative Badge

 This award was donated by Kaiser Wilhelm II on January 27, 1914.  The badge was intended for "those officers, non-commissioned officers and enlisted men whose use for mobilization for air service was no longer envisaged". In 1919 the War Ministry in Berlin decreed that the badge should also be given to pilots, observation officers and air gunners  who had served in the air force for at least three years or who had been seriously wounded could be awarded.The badge was worn on the left breast.Applications for the award of the badge had to be submitted by January 31, 1921.
