          Thank you Ludwig.


          The small patch with crossed oak leaves denotes Sanitatsoffizier (Reserve).


          Cheers,

            Correction:
            Crossed flags looks to be a Stab patch. Staboffizier?

                This early (circa 1935) Verwaltungsobermaat patch has just arrived.

                          What a nice badge. Great find !!! Any markings on the back ?

                          Comment


                            The back is a bit of a mess. Looks to have been glued onto something at one time.
                            I can just make our a date at the bottom left. 18.5.23? If so that would mean the badge is earlier than I thought.


                            Also the chevron added later?


                            Cheers,

                              The patch was introduced to the Reichmarine in 1921.

                                Funker Abzeichen

                                It is not the first time i show this badge/patch in this thread. But the last time i tried to get some info on when it was introduced in the German Navy and so on. After a bit of research i have found out that the badge was introduced to the Kaiserliche Marine in 1910 and was continued to be worn in the Reichmarine 1921-33. The badge is a Funker Sonderabzeichen ( Specialist badge for Radio operators )

                                Photographic evidence also shows that the badge was worn in the Kriegsmarine as well. ( See page 115 in Eduardos book " Deutsche Kriegsmarine " )
