KM Deck shoesComment

KM markings... Eagle + M
Note sure if leather sole shoes are practical on a wet u-boot deck...slippery!
I guess that's why they wore a safety harness!!!Comment

What a great thread. I know it's old, but I've never seen it before, I just wish all the pictures were still there. Maybe Lee and some of the other guys can repost photos for us.
Michel your collection is fantastic. Very nice examples and very nicely presented. Thanks for starting this thread.
Nick that is a great set-up. I look forward to seeing it in person someday.
I have only recently started collecting KM items, and my main focus is on Schnelleboot and Hilfskreuzer, but I do not really have anything of my own to share with you guys yet.
In the meantime, perhaps the following photos will add something of interest to this thread. These were take at the U-Boote Archiv in Cuxhaven when a few friends and I went there last year. You might recognize one of the uniforms.Comment

That's Dönitz medals and KC?
Seems like most of Dönitz' uniforms survived, this is the third uniform ive seen that he owned once

Yes, that is Dönitz's uniform (I believe that is his KC, but I cannot remember for sure). Here is a closer shot of it.Comment

For those of you who like the "been there" caps, here is one for you. Unfortunately I did not keep good notes so I do not remember whose it was. Perhaps someone here might know or recognize the traditions patch.Comment
Very rare items! Very nice
