Description

Kriegsmarine photo album of a sailor serving on a minesweeper.

The album comes with 192 photos showing the military basic training on land, the campaign in France, and the officers. Also, excellent photos were taken on board. One photo shows him in the Kriegsmarine tropical tunic and another shot shows the emblem of a German ship (boat number 258). The sailor was awarded the Minesweeper War Badge. You can see it in some photos. Among them are also some portrait photos. 

The album was compiled after the war with original photos by the veteran himself. 

Signs of use.
