    1. Very nice photo Odulf, thanks for posting it here. Here is a Press Photo (dated 5-6-39) showing Grossadmiral Raeder awarding a Wound Medal to a crew member of Panzerschiff Deutschland. Note the wearing of a Geschutzfuhrer T (Turmgeschutz) specialty patch. This patch was discontinued in 1940. Cheers, Larry Back of photo.
    2. Nice photo,Odulf. I have also not seen this badge in wear in a photo. Here is an Officer Candidate with Machinist career patch in wear. Cheers, Larry
    3. Here is a small selection showing a Kapitan zur See visiting Coastal Artillery troops. Cheers, Larry
    4. Sawfish emblem belonged to U-96. Plenty of repro. insignia for sale on the net. Here for instance: http://www.warhats.com/ww2-german-u-boat-badges.html According to this site the emblem represents 9 U-Boat Flotilla. Cheers, Larry
