LarryT Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Thanks. I had heard of KM sailors with tattoos but had never seen a photo of one. Same with Heer soldiers. I coloured the photo to show approximately what it may have looked like. Cheers, Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernhard H.Holst Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) Hello readers. My guess and it is only a guess is that this K.M. sailor was transferred or drafted from the Merchant Marine into the navy. As a merchant mariner he was of course at liberty to have tattoos applied. I would doubt the K.M. rejecting him from service because of tattoos. . Bernhard H. Holst Edited July 31, 2014 by Bernhard H.Holst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
