Here's my tauchretter,

The other one

Monsun,

Do you have any wartimne photos that show the word "Tauchretter" on the front? I have a nice tauchretter in my collection, but there seams to be a question if its post war due to the style of "a" in the letter writing. Here is a photo of mine:

Micheal, still waiting to hear from you.

Hi Hinrik,

I don't think you have to worry about your tauchretter, post war tauchretters looked very different.

Here's pictures of 2 tauchretters with the same letter "a" on it.

You should look on Joe's site ( http://joe-tauchretter.tripod.com) he has a very nice site about tauchretters! he is expert on the tauchretter, maybe you can ask him.

Also the post war tauchretters are on his site, have a look!

Thank you Michel and Gordon,

Indeed the yellow eagle isn't an officer's eagle and the sweatband is not standard,

I have read in "Die Kriegsmarine" from Angolia that such caps excist.

Thanks for the advice (again!), I didn't buy it.

I found out that it's a ww2 French Navy Badge.

I was hoping for a Kriegsmarine badge made in France, but the French Navy also had enamel badges.

Very interesting!!!

You must have a very nice collection, all Kriegsmarine?

looks really good, I hope it's coming soon. This is a must have for me!

Is there a pre-release order possible?
