LarryT Posted April 30, 2016 Author Posted April 30, 2016 Thanks very much for the nice words. Writing on the back of the photo says: Ernst 1942. Here is another form the series. There is the date of 1943 on the back. He wears the EK2 ribbon and has been promoted to Obergefreiter. No trade specialty badge this time. Cheers, Larry

LarryT Posted May 16, 2016 Author Posted May 16, 2016 Very nice photos, especially the Torpedo Mechanic photo. Thanks for posting. Cheers, Larry
Odulf Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 Some did wear the maximum of 2 special badges, obviously the combination of Geschützführer/Sperrvormann [Gun Captain/Blockade Weapons] was not uncommon for Bosun's Mates.

I need help of most of these Patch in my newest Photo. Nice photo. The young man certainly had a lot of specialist trade badges. Could the top badge be for a Spielmann? (Band Leader/Drum/Fife). I have seen more than one variation of this badge. Here are two more types of Spielmann badges. The badge at left is from my personal collection. Cheers, Larry
LarryT Posted May 20, 2016 Author Posted May 20, 2016 Kustenartillerie (Coastal Artillery). Cheers, Larry

Odulf Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 Hi Morten, from top to bottom: 3 Watch stripes on the left sleeve - 6. Division Backbordwache [6th Division of the Port Watch] Matrosenobergefreiter und Unteroffizier-Anwarter [Acting NCO] Unidentified Unidentified Special badge for Motoren-Lehrgang III [Special training Engines III] a three bladed propellor Could you give a better close up of his sleeve, perhaps that may reveal the two unidentified Specialty Badges.
Martin W Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 Hi Morten, can you provide a close up of the sleeve ??? Cheers,Martin.
