Narvik Shield 1957
In 1957, the Narvik Shield, along with many other German military decorations of World War II, was reauthorized for wear by qualifying veterans. The new version was without the eagle and swastika symbol of the Third Reich. The regulations remained basically the same, with the only difference being that now junior NCO's and privates were allowed to wear the shield on their white shirts and dress jackets.
