    Sarge,

    That's true, because the prong backed national Kokarde is so much more easy to find than a real navy style Kokarde!

        For issued Mütze, yes. But for all private purchased examples, the Kokarde with prongs on the back would be correct.

          My cap was issued, it has a marking inside and the typical stitches for the rare Navy Kokarde. Tony, do you mean it existed white private purchased "Waschmuetzen" with Kokarden with prongs?

            Though I may not have said it clearly, I was talking about the Kokarde for the issue Wachtuchmützen. I believe that all other enlisted caps (both issue blue ones and private purchase examples) took the prong backed Kokarden.

              Yes, all blue caps that I have seen had Kokarden with prongs.

                            I'm not sure sure about the Kokarde on the white cap? Really a "big" issued Navy Kokarde or another one?
