Norm F Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Hi Jan Arne, Another really nice badge. I agree with your assessment of an unmarked S&L. Just out of curiosity, was this badge acquired along with the u-boat badge you just posted? Best regards, ---Norm
Jan Arne S Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Hi Norm ! Nope ! Badge is from two different places . Jan Arne
Norm F Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Hi Norm ! Nope ! Badge is from two different places . Jan Arne Hi Arne, Well, a happy coincidence. You'll notice they have the same reverse setup. Best regards, ---Norm
Gordon Williamson Posted February 27, 2011 Author Posted February 27, 2011 Very nice S&L Jan Arne. Interesting that the hinge is set higher than normal position against the bow of the ship.
nesredep Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Hi! Jan Arne Nice addition S&L Badge. Morten.
all1knew Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Hello there, Very nice S&L you have there! William Kramer
nesredep Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 Hi! Very fabalous Kriegsmarine badges here.:jumping: Morten.
Jan Arne S Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Hi Guys ! Loooong since I had some new Badges to show You . Here is a not so common maker of Destroyer Badges . Unmarked so called "flat back" . Jan Arne
Jan Arne S Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) Back of unmarked Destroyer Badge . Have got the RCC cancer .( Or more correct they believe it`s the RCC ) . Had to remove the right Kindey . Was a tumor between 10 and 11 cm inside Kindey . Was operated in end of July . Was at Hospital 8 days . Had no syntoms before it was covered under a MR scanning becuase i had some pains no and the i right thigh . But still have this pain in Thigh if I walks a lot , sems like that had nothing with Kidney to do . Since Eastern to Operation I had ride 1150 km on Mountbike without any problems .

Gordon Williamson Posted September 18, 2011 Author Posted September 18, 2011 Very nice example Jan Arne. Looks like a half-hearted attempt has been made to de-nazify the badge at some time ? Sorry to hear about your health problem. Sounds like you were very lucky they found it when looking for the cause of your thigh pain. I believe renal cell carcinoma is one of the really nasty types so I hope they have removed it in time and nothing has spread.
Erik Krogh Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Thanks for showing your nice zinc destroyer, Jan Arne. If I'm not mistaken, these typically retain a lot of their finish like your's does. I had one years ago that was almost mint. I also hope that your health issues are resolved! Best Regards, Erik
Bubba_Z Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Hi Jan Arne, Very nice flat-back Destroyer badge! Pity somebody tried to denazify it. Hope this unwelcome stowaway you've mentioned is gone for good and you will be able to ride your bike as good as before the surgary! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Cheers, Hubert BTW, I thought I ride my mountain bike quite often but never made 1150 km in a year, you must be kind of iron man!
Chris Boonzaier Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 This is the Wifes Grandfathers Destroyer doc, for Narvik 1
Chris Boonzaier Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 He recieved 3 award badges, the unnamed ones here... and later bought a Schwerin one...

Paul R Posted January 16, 2012 Posted January 16, 2012 The wound badges did not show up. Where was he wounded? Narvik?
Martin W Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Nice badges Chris. The unmarked needle pin badge on the left looks like a nice early Deumer made piece. Regards,Martin.
Chris Boonzaier Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Nice badges Chris. The unmarked needle pin badge on the left looks like a nice early Deumer made piece. Regards,Martin. Hi, As he was one of the first guys issued it, i always think it may be the one that was the first award type, but that is of course maybe a bit microcosmic... 1
Martin W Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Hi Chris, looking at the award Document dated for Oct 1940,and if the Deumer was the first badge he received then i would definately put Deumer as one of the early producers of the tombak Desroyer along with other makers such as Schwerin,Schickle and Meybauer. Regards,Martin.
tyanacek Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Hello to all, I bought these two zinc Kriegsmarine badge bargains at the SOS this past weekend: a L/21 U-boat Badge and a JFS Destroyer Badge. I was especially happy to get the L/21 U-boat, as I have never had one of those before. The Destroyer Badge is mostly void of finish, but at least it's original. Best regards, Tom
