    1. Thank you very much Morten. I was lucky with this photo. I bid on quite a few and miss out on a few as well. I wonder who won that very nice KM Pfarrer (Chaplain) photo that was on Ebay recently. I was outbid on that one. Cheers, Larry
    2. I agree, great photos, thanks for posting them here. Here is a photo of a Kontadmiral inspecting Coastal troops. Cheers, Larry
    3. Thank you Odulf for the great information about my photo. I believe you are correct about the Kapitan zur See being Herman von Bredow. Cheers, Larry Nice photo GreyC. I have a photo coming to me showing the same tally being worn. I will post a scan when it arrives. Cheers, Larry
    4. Thank you very much. Here is a TeNo Vormann wedding portrait. He wears the AD (Allgemeiner Dienst) patch on his left sleeve. Cheers, Larry
    5. Thanks very much for your very useful information. I must apologise for not giving all the information about the photos. I do this sometimes when I am in a hurry. The top three were taken at the Kaserne in Bremerhaven. The other photos just have "Marine Kaserne" written on them in the same handwriting. Cheers, Larry
    6. Very nice cap tally photo Morten. I was looking through my KM photos and found this parade photo. They are wearing 5 Schiffsstammabteilung 5 cap tallies. Cheers, Larry
    7. I thought I would add a little set of photos showing Oath to the Fuhrer ceremonies at the Marine-Kaserne at Wesermunde. Cheers, Larry Next set on the parade ground. The above photo also shows DAF (Deutsche Arbeitsfront) men present with a good shot of their flag pole top. Cheers, Larry
    8. Wonderful and rare photos. Great information too. I had never heard of LW Mausi units. Cheers, Larry
    9. Hi Morten, The patch is field-grey. My scanner has made it look darker. I see what you mean, The letters on my patch are closer together. Measurement is 5.5cm. Cheers, Larry
    10. Nice photo. It would be nice to know his service history. Is that a KvK and Luft 4 Year Service ribbon bar he is wearing. Photo must have been taken late war. I was thinking that the Vizeadmiral in the photo I posted above might be August Thiele. Ribbon bar and medals that can be seen match those awarded to him. Facial features match as well. Cheers, Larry
    11. Very nice photo. Here is an unknown Vizeadmiral wearing the High Seas Fleet Badge. Cheers, Larry
    12. I have managed to add this field-grey "FP" (Marinefestungspionieroberfeldwebel) patch to my collection. Cheers, Larry
    13. I had a go at colouring the Coastal Artillery photo. Cheers, Larry
    14. Hi Martin, Thank you very much. Forgot to add this patch which is coming with the Vermessungsdienst patch. It has been identified as a Kraftfahrer patch over at WA forum. Cheers, Larry
    15. Thank you. The "V" over an anchor is the early Administration patch. Here is a pic of the two "V" patches. The Vermessungsdienst patch is on its way to me and will soon be in my collection. Cheers, Larry
    16. Correction: "V" patch is Vermessungsdienst (Surveying Service) not Administration. Cheers, Larry
    17. Thank you very much Morten. Not specialist insignia but insignia worn by WM sport teams. Anchors on shorts: the two at left were worn by enlisted men and NCO's, the one second from right with a border was worn by officers. Cheers, Larry
    18. Very nice photo. I really like photos showing the "Stab" flag patch. Here is a rare photo from my collection showing a least two men wearing the "V" Administrative patch. Cheers, Larry
    19. Thanks Morten. Hope you vacation was enjoyable. Here is a photo of a Obermaat wearing Bootsmann career patch. Cheers, Larry
    20. thank you Morten. Here is a Musik Matrose (Musician) badge in wear. Cheers, Larry
