Description

The Kriegsmarine High Seas Fleet Badge (Flottenkriegsabzeichen)

The Kriegsmarine High Seas Fleet Badge (Flottenkriegsabzeichen), was awarded to Naval personnel on battleships and cruisers, but also to crews that provided logistical support.  Instituted in April 1941, it was awarded to crews who served 12-week service on a battleship or cruisers or to recipients wound or killed during operations or outstanding achievements in a naval engagement.

The Kriegsmarine High Seas Fleet Badge was worn on the lower part of the left breast pocket, underneath the Iron Cross (EKI) if awarded.
