Soviet Navy Cap badge

[torstenbel]

Am I correct in my assumption that this is just a standard Soviet Navy officer cap badge? Cheers, Torsten.

do the red lines in the wreath have any specific meaning?

the reverse

I don't think it's anything special. The one I have in front of me is exactly the same (with the 2 thin red lines).
Still, it's a classic. They don't make 'em like that no more.

Hi Eric, I also do not think that it is anything special...I am not sure, but I thought that there was a difference in these badges somewhere for different ranks or at least different groups of officers...is that true? Cheers, Torsten.

Torsten, its just the standard 80's pattern Red Fleet officer cap badge.

Yes, Fleet or Navy Infantry.
