Title Kriegsmarine NCO's sleeve patch - 1st class engine room instructor
Nationality German
Period c 1933-45
Sold
MAGNIFY

These oval badges were worn by NCOs and denoted their particular professional skill, in this case an engine room instructor, first class (mot.I lehrgang), signified by the double chevron. It would have been worn on the upper left arm.

It is machine embroidered red (perhaps a cotton/rayon mix as it has a sheen to it) on a navy blue wool twill ground, with a rayon mesh backing. It measures just under 9cm long and is in ex-stores condition.

The sword lives up to expectations and looks even better than on the website. The detail and etching is superb.

Thanks so much for your help and the extra information.
