Cloth Naval Badges

[W. C. Stump]

I was wondering if the Kreigsmarine had cloth qualification badges other than for the U-Boat, Destroyer and the Small Battle Badges?

Yes, I believe so.

I believe: No Hilfskreuzer though...

I know people still say there are original examples of the cloth Hilfskreuzer badge, but I have spoken/corresponded with crewmen from five Hilfskreuzer, who in-turn have asked their other comrades. All contend that there were no cloth or embroidered Hilfskreuzer badges.

I would like to hear other's opinions on this because I have passed on these in the past. It would certainly be nice to nail down a "real" answer about these.

Thanks!

Cloth KM Badges

I bumped this back up to the top because I saw another post on S-boat cloth badges. So we do have questions on the subject..... Sure would like to hear other's opinions on the issue...

Thanks!
