Thanks for adding these Erich. The real challenge is of course to find nice photos where they are wearing the S-Boot Badge with Diamonds. I have only seen a couple of such photos.

[ErichB]

Indeed Gordon and correct, I have another very sharp photo of T?niges one of the best I have seen with a very clear signature in black on a white base bottom, will try and get that photo downloaded soon.

a shame really but many of the KM personalities used a blue or black pen over their tunics and the signatures are very hard to discern. case in point is Horst Weber of the 3rd S-Bootflottille, later the 1st Schn.Bt. Division.
