Unknown chevron

Hello everyone, I recently picked up the Chevron not that long ago and I thought I knew what it was but I was wrong? Help me out with this is be greatly appreciate it. Could it a colonial piece or veteran item? It may even be from the 1920s?

It was also worn together with the mine qualification badge by Freikorps Volunteer Minesweeper troops clearing mines in the North Sea in 1919.

No. I'll have to go through his 2 passes again and check that. But, I have a feeling he didn't because that's his picture in 1919 when he was in the Freiwillige Minensuchverbände der Nordsee.  I also have his cap tally that says "Minensuchverbände der Nordsee. "

Well , perhaps going through his passes you can discover something
