I would like to see the board that Freymadl would have worn. I may have a chance to buy a set. His rank is below.

Paul,

I think that the medical officer boards were essentially the same as the army's. Of course, they would have the navy colored "darts" (Faden). They would have had three cords, gold, black, silver, with a dark blue velvet underlay. The highest rank was Generalstabsarzt der Marine, the next was Marine-Generalarzt. It would have had two pips in addition to the Aesculapstab. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture.
