tarbridge Posted November 6, 2018 Share #1 Posted November 6, 2018 A early pre-war Meyer Submarine badge with the "positioning pin" still attached. These pins would hole their shirts worming and tearing them.Many Submariners would break them off solving that problem. A really nice badge...

Brig Posted November 6, 2018 Share #2 Posted November 6, 2018 That's a helluva long stabilizing pin...I'm guessing it was intentionally bent because it kept stabbing the wearer in the chest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
