      Ok guys. Here is an interesting one.  A nice seasoned sailor from the Panzerschiff Deutschland.  Guessing he has a 4 and a 12 year service medal but I can't figure out what the third one is?  I assume it is possibly a foreign decoration, can any of you shed light on it?

      You failed to mention that this photo is currently up for auction on Ebay.

      Cheers,

      Hi Odulf,

       

      Do you have any information about this ??

       

      Cheers, Morten.

      Hi Morten,

      Angolia & Schlicht's Die Kriegsmarine - Uniforms & Traditions - Page 88 and 93 gives this information about the positioning of insignia for Matrosen. Included in the pics for career abzeichen is the Flugmeldedienst patch.

      Here is a photo from my collection showing the same career badge on the lower sleeve. It is not gold on blue like the Funker badge above it. It may be the rare red on blue badge. See here for an example. http://www.wehrmacht-awards.com/forums/showthread.php?t=574572&page=7

      Cheers,

      Larry

      Great photo Morten. Can someone please explain why the Flugmelder (Aircraft Warning/Spotter) patch is often seen on the lower sleeve. I thought it was a "Career" patch and would be placed above the rank chevron.

      Cheers,

      Larry
