Michel Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 The caps are here!http://www.treasurebunker.com/acatalog/Cat...Headgear_2.htmlI mean the officer side cap with sword fish and the EM with the anchor!Thanks!!Hello Vic,Ask good pictures and post them, but IT IS SURE the Officer's U Boat Overseas Cap Ref: 724 is not a good one.Regards,Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic Posted November 6, 2005 Author Share Posted November 6, 2005 Thank you very much for your opinion!When I saw it, it seemed to me that the cockade was really strange and not suitable for a EM upgraded cap.About the another side cap, I dont know if the emblem was used by any unit, but I think remember that Ulric of England sold one wit a similar emblem.Thanks again for your help and let me know if I can be usefull for you.I willa sk for more photos.

Michel Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Please, MIchel...could you explain while I wait more photos why the U boat oficer is not good...??Thanks!Victor.Too many things...This bordm?tze is a basic construction for enlisted and NCO (may be original), now look at the eagle, the cocarde, the piping, NEVER on a real officer borm?tze.Regards,Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michel Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 An original Kriegsmarine Officer bordm?tze, open your eyes Victor and look at the differences... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic Posted November 9, 2005 Author Share Posted November 9, 2005 The cockade is clearly different as the one with the swordfish seems a LW one. Also the eagle is an EM one...but the gold wreath seems similar?I see same age and toning in all insignias...is the main difference the cockade?EXcellent example...thanks Michel.
