    Default Kriegsmarine compass.... supposed to be off an E boat.

    This compass has just come my way and the previous owner said it had come off a German E boat. I don't know if E boats had a particular type of compass that differed from those on other vessels but I am sure there is someone on this forum who might well know. Any info would be much appreciated
    All the best,
    D.

    Wanted, Soldbuch, Wehrpass, photo albums, documents, in fact anything from German soldiers who were stationed in the Channel Islands (Kanalinseln), Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, Sark.

    I wonder if the maker C Plath had the monopoly on ships compasses
