    That's a nice one Larry.

    Schulschiff Deutschland was in fact not a Kriegsmarine tally, the "Deutschland" was a sailing bark of the German Merchant Navy.

    All cap tallies worn by cadets/trainees for the German Merchant Fleet had a red and white border.

    Thanks Edgar for the great information. The badge he wears has been described as a NSRL Watersport badge. I cannot find anything similar on the internet.

    Can you or someone else confirm this.

    Cheers,

    Larry
