Need Help on Spotting Fake U-boat Badge

<HTML>Hi everyone,
I just got back from Paratrooper training at the US Air Force Academy. I won my Wings and am more pumped now then ever before!
But to get to the point, my Dad and I just received a U-boat badge (the one awarded after two patrols) and we are trying to determine if it is a fake or a genuine. The dealer wants $225 for it and it is an early badge (not zinc). I have been to
www.gordon-williamson.co.uk and seen what info he has and it passes as genuine so far. If you have any info or know of any websites that I can visit to see if this badge is genuine or not, I would be much obliged.
Cheers,
Frank Blazich, Jr.</HTML>
