Kriegsmarine Herman Wernstein U-boat

[John R]

Gordon,

Not sure what your reference book will indicate, and I am looking forward to buying a copy when it is published, but did you determine that this badge was indeed made by Herman Wernstein or not? John

Though still generally referred to as Wernstein by many, there seems to be doubt now over whether this maker mark actually belongs to the Wernstein firm. Unfortunately, if not Wernstein, there doesn't seem to be any form evidence of which firm it does belong to.
