Description
Here is your chance to pick up a rare example of a gold flatwire Kriegsmarine officer’s coastal artillery cap eagle. This insignia is sometimes also identified as a flatwire General’s cap eagle and was used on crusher style visors. In great condition overall and likely unissued. Would make a wonderful addition to any collection. The Kriegsmarine maintained a large ground force, organized along the same lines as the German Army, which was known as the Marine-Infanterie. Kriegsmarine naval artillery and anti-aircraft crews were considered as shore personnel. Artillery units were organized into either regiments or sections while flak units were maintained in brigades and regiments. Both types of units were assigned to various ports and harbors and thus were under the direct operational authority of both the port commanders as well as the commander harbor security forces. During actual invasion of coastal regions by enemy forces, these units became part of the sea defense zones.Free shipping ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD & I don’t charge PayPal fees like some of the other guys!
