Hello,

Picture found on the net. What do you think : Marine-HJ or Motor-HJ ? I would say Marine-HJ with a Driver or mechanic speciality...
Best regards

Ah, if you blow the pic up a few times you can make out a Marine-HJ qualification on his right arm (Reichsseesportabzeichen or Reichsseefunkprüfung). I'd say he's a Marine-HJ boy who has also qualified for the Motor-HJ badge but he's not wearing an MHJ uniform... I'm confused :)
 
The Marine-HJ wore also the Fahrtenanzug when not on navy duty.
I have never seen this badge worn on a navy dress. I think that it is only to wear on Fahrtenanzug (trip suit... said my translation soft).

 
He also could be former MHJ currently in the Motor HJ .
 
Haye guys i did a bit of reserch on this but failled to find any other pics like this but what i did find was that vthe N.S.K.K had and maintained a small motorboat unit this unit taught many motor hj members how to operate outboard powered assault boats now the kriegesmarine had assault boat flotillas, i think the lad in the pic was one of these operaters and would explain the motor hj badge

cheers steve :yo:
