Summary

[edit]
Description
English: German Kriegsmarine uniforms, etc.:
  • German Navy seaman formal dress:
    • Dienstanzug for Matrose (Bootsmann)
    • The Kriegsmarine parade jacket was a smart form of formal wear for full-dress occasions – parades, award ceremonies and so on. It had a short, waistcoat-type body, which closely resembled that of the officer's mess jacket, and was commonly reffered to as the Affenjacke, or 'monkey suit'. It was single-breasted, fastened by a pair of small gilt anchor buttons linked by a gilt metal chain at the base of the lapels. At each front panel was a vertical row of nine gilt metal anchor buttons. On each cuff was a small strip of dark blue cloth bearing a further five such buttons. The parade jackets featured the eagle and swastika national emblem on the right breast, just above the level of the top button. Rank and trade insignia were worn on the left sleeve, in exactky the same fashion as for the pea jacket. The parade jacket was worn over the traditional sailor's pullover shirt, but unlike the pea jacket, the sailor's collar, or Kieler Kragen, was worn outside the jacket.
    • Sailor's cap (Tellermütze) with original Schlachtschiff Scharnhorst band
