Title Kriegsmarine NCO's sleeve patch - cartographer
Nationality German
Period c 1933-45
Sold

These oval badges were worn by NCOs and denoted their particular professional skill, in this case a cartographer. It would have been worn on the upper left arm.

It is machine embroidered yellow (perhaps a cotton/rayon mix as it has a sheen to it) on a navy blue wool broadcloth ground, with a rayon mesh backing. It measures 8.5cm long and is in slightly worn condition, being a little frayed round the edges.

It got here this morning, presumably delayed by the holidays. It is perfect, indeed better than I was expecting.

I received the item today, you had packed it well and there were no problems with customs. Overall I was happy with it although the blade was a little bit worse than I had imagined, however thank you for your efforts.
