Hi.

I was not sure to where to put this so I hope its ok that I posted it here?

I need your help to valuate this optic sight.

this sight is for a 10.5 cm/45 (4.1") SK C/06 gun, used on M?we class, F-boats, Type 40 and older minesweepers.

Some Type VII submarines were refitted with them as well.

There are four different filters that can be selected by a turning wheel.

First normally clear, a yellowish filter, a reddish filter and a strong grey filter.

Here is a link to the pictures:

PS. The stripes that you see on the two last pictures are only sunlight that came between the camera and the lence.

Best regards,

Andr?

A real nice grouping you have there!

I had not realized that Petty Officers that low in rank DID receive German Crosses-- an interesting thread!

Privates could even receive the DK.

I have seen some pictures of privates with DK and RK,

If I can find them I will post them.

Best regards,

Andr

Hi.

I just got this smock in the mail today.

With the smock it is a well documented certificate book with fotos.

There is also a original copy of the owners soldbuch.

There was also some scans of the soldbuch, but it was to black to read.

The owner was SS-Scharf?hrers Ernst Hisky who was born 7.9.1916.

He was in the SS-Panzer J?ger Abt.5.

Here is a link to the pictures and some documents.

I need your opinions on this smock and if you also know the value then that would be great.

Thanks.

Best regards,

The backside stamped with "A" for Assman

What about this one?

Is this wartime made or post war?

Well, that is good enough for me. I also was doing a little more thinking about why this pennant would be used. It could be that the OOW was responsible for a nest of small boats, like e-boats or u-boats, in port where the senior man on board was a petty officer. Therefore this OOW had a vehicle in which he flew the pennant so that everyone knew he was in that vehicle. My point is that one junior officer was responsible, as the OOW, for all the little boats around the pier in his squadron. Something like that anyway.

Remember, there were all kinds of small boats in the German WWII Navy, picket boats, minewseeper boats, they all certainly did not have an officer on each one all the time when inport.

For larger ships, like I said, I do not think such a pennant was necessary unless there was a special little mast on the quarterdeck that flew it in the German Navy.

For example, in the US Navy in WWII, the OOD inport had a spyglass sort of device to watch for any Admirals heading his way so honors could be rendered.

So I think your research has paid off and you have found something new, at least for me. Good work.

Finally something good happens to me too!!

If I could get a certificate or he's signature on a paper that confirms that this is an original OOD pennant, then everything has turned out great.

I have never seen a pennant like this for sale before so all i need to do now is to figure out the value.

Here is a new update on the pennant: 29.03.2006

I just received a e-mail from Rainer Schlicht (son of Adolf Schlicht)

Hello Andr?,

The pennant was checked by my father. It was manufacured about 1940 and he told me that it is an original, without any doubt. The condition is excellent, probably it was protected by a celluloid protective cover.

Best regards,

Rainer Schlicht

I have asked a coupple of question regarding this pennant and I have also asked if he or he's father can make some sort of certificate (like niemann) regarding this pennant.

I'll let you all know when I have new updates.

Hi.

Here is another km cap that I need opinions on.

As you can see, the eagle has been taken off.

How easy is it to sew another eagle back on and is there any experts that can do this?

Best regards,

Andr

I will try to get better pictures.

What is the easyest way to see if it is a replica?

Hi.

The reason why i want to part with this is because I'm saving up for a uniform.
