Dave B Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Hello all,Yesterday I bought a tea ration tin off an old KSLI veteran and inside contained a small lot of U-boat badges and insignia,also in the tin was this small plastic badge...it has holes I presume for it to be sewn on to something.Anyone know if it's U-boat related?CheersDave[attachmentid=18192]Here is the tin and contents.[attachmentid=18193] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Sysum Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 (edited) Hello Dave.B I have had a look in the U-boat emblems book.It seems to be the emblem for U318.This boat made 5 patrols and survived the war.The face on the badge is that of lyric poet Joachim Ringelnatz.A nice find there Dave..Best Regards Richard..
