If you look closely at the picture on the left you can see a name scratched on the reverse. This is "Hauck K".
 
There was a Karl Hauck in the luftwaffe who is listed as Lt. in 2.(H)/AG 12 (recon) and is listed as winning the DKiG on 17/04/43 and the Ehrenpokal on 08/02/43.
 
I do not know for sure that this is the same man but there's always wishful thinking!

Top row: This Radio operator/Air gunner badge is manufactured by Juncker of Berlin. An early piece, undoubtedly pre-war, very fine and slim construction, with the top of the swastika segmented. This badge is constructed of neusilber and of extremely high quality. This is known as the 1st pattern.
 
Bottom row: This Radio operator/Air gunner badge is manufactured by Juncker of Berlin. An early piece, probably pre-war, very fine and slim construction, with the top of the swastika segmented. This one is made from tombac and is referred to as the 2nd pattern.

Above: Another Juncker Radio Operator /Air Gunner badge but this one is later and considered to be the 3rd pattern. The eagle and wreath are different from previous examples but the hinge, catch and rivet style are the same. Also note the maker mark is the same as the 1st and 2nd patterns.
