      More patches photos. They are not KM but WH, LW and Seenotdienst. I am sorry photos are cropped but I need them for an article. Anybody have these patches in collection? Anybody saw them in reality?

      This photo of SMU-3 and SMU-4 was taken in 1914. Your grandfather is probably on board.
    3. Von Thronstahl
      You can write to this address: gdpost@oesta.gv.at They can definitely find information about your grandfather, considering informations you can provide them about your grandfather.

      Great photos of your grandfather. My great grandfather was KuK Matrose too. Do you know when and how long did he serve on SMU-4?

      Recently I have found this medal. I can´t find any valuable information on the web. From what can be seen , it is a German Boer war medal. Probably commemorative piece. It is made of aluminum 4 cm in diameter and weights 6,4 grams. Any help will be appreciated.

      Here is a photo of Kingdom Yugoslavia naval officer. Is this Double dragon order he wears and which grade? It is still unclear to me how Kingdom Yugoslavia officer could get it? Maybe he got it while serving in Austro-hungarian navy. It was prohibited to wear Au medals and orders in Yugoslavia but maybe foreign orders were not forbidden.
    11. Von Thronstahl
      I thought of Double dragon too but I couldn´t find specimen with "rays" like this.

      Help needed with this medal. I think it is not Kingdom Yugoslavia medal. Even my knowledge about KY medals and orders is very poor, I think design of the medal is definitely not Yugoslavian. "Mérite maritime" medal looks similar but I think it isn´t it. Maybe you gentlemen could help me.

      I think last one is post war Larry.

      Here are 6 of them in my possession. I would like to see patches from your collections and maybe we could learn something new about them. Me for example. I don´t now who were their makers, differences between makers, Reichsmarine, KM and postwar examples,.....,etc. You got the point

      I agree with Rogi, Chris. It was good intention tip and there are only 2 fake items. Other are all good and some of them are priced really cheap. And I have found Kustenartillerie patch on the same page with Croatian stuff for friends collection.
    16. Von Thronstahl
      Cloth items are fake. Air legion is fake and Linden leaf never existed in cloth variant. Others are almost all standard "bodenfund" stuff from Slovenia.

      Here are some of mine Chetnik photos: Back sidewith some writings. I can´t read it despite the fact I learned cyrilic at school. Maybe native speaking and writing members could help me.

      Here is another "conversion" of SS dagger but to partisan knife. This was once in my possession and it was bought directly from an old man who didn´tknow anything but that is a knife. Sorry for the off topic.
    22. Von Thronstahl
      Please, put a direct link to auction. I went through their page and found nothing. THank you in advance
