Hello

A boat from number U 580 to U 600. Very likely U 596.

Cap badge looks like emblem of the 1st U-flotilla.

Many thanks,,,I cannot see "Jahn" on the bridge but he could be elsewhere! Yes, Ist Flotilla emblem but with crossed walking sticks (I think)
Kaleun of 177 used crutches at some time and maybe the "lords" were having "fun"???
I thought 61 at first but their emblem had crossed brooms!

Hello,

U 592, CO - Oberleutnant zur See Carl Borm (photo from uboat.net). What do you think ?

Regards

[oldhoweboy]

Yes! Very similar!
How many officers on deck?
Looking at the marine archive for 592 on commission day.
Are railings OK for 592?
Many thanks
