Kriegsmarine "3. AUSBILDUNGSBATAILLON 3." navy hat cover- help needed!

[Discostu]

Hi all,

I was given this "3. AUSBILDUNGSBATAILLON 3." navy hat title and was wondering #1 if it was original and #2 what it signifies. I was told it was a later war title- Does anyone know what value this would have, or (even better) if I could find an original hat to put it on?

Thanks!

postwar tally imo

Bundesmarine I guess...

I have to agree with the other gentlemen, its West German. A Basic Training Battalion for the Marine.

I agree with Kondor, Bundesmarine.
