Hi Christian,

They're not my badges, only images borrowed from the many postings by members on the forum, and compiled in a useful format for educational purposes.

The first Type 1 and Type 5 compilations made use of the images posted by Gordon Williamson on his website and included in his "Torpedo Los".

But I must add, that Type 1 of John's is absolutely stunning! Note the beautiful coppery tone of the base metal that is so characteristic of Meybauer's tombak badges - also seen in the Minesweepers and Auxiliary Cruisers.

Best regards,
---Norm
