Hello,

looks post war, probably west germany (Bundesmarine).

[NOR_collector]

Does anyone have this book:
Die deutsche Wehrmacht, Bd.2, Die Kriegsmarine
von Adolf Schlicht, John R. Angolia

This pennant is supposed to be in that book.
Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks.

Best regards,
André

Hello Andre:

What is pictured on page 47 of that book you referenced is the

Quote:
Day Badge (Dienstabzeichen) / Duty badge of "officers of the watch" (Wachoffizier - W.O.: The yellow pressed metal badge identified the officer of the watch on ships or the "duty officer" (Offizier vom Dienst - O.v.D.) of land units. It consisted of an oval oakleaf wreath surrounding a fouled anchor. The regulation size was 6.4x5.2cm. but this varied. The reverse was hollow-pressed and had a pin attachment, spring clip or two loops and a cotter-key type pin.

I am not aware of it being produced in a car pennant format, but this may have been entirely likely. Perhaps others can comment on that aspect.

Regards,
John

Hi John and thanks for looking this up for me.

Is it possible for you to scan the page in the book and post it in here?

Best regards,
