Marine Kusten Polizei

Hello mate.
I'm a member of Kompanie 1 WW2 battle re-enactment Society UK.
My normal role is that of an Unterscharfuhrer Feldgendarme der Waffen SS 12th Div Hitler Jurgend.
For more formal occassions I have researched and now change to an Unterwachtmeister der Marine Kusten Polizei 1943.
My tunic is a Kreigsmarine double breasted jacket with matching trousers. On my left arm is the Kreigmarine Polizei eagle (navy blue with yellow embroidery). On the breast is a Kreigs eagle and on the sleeve is a Navy blue cuff title with Kusten polizei highlighted in yellow.
Shoulder rank is depicted by shoulder boards with pointed ends (unlike other services which had them rounded) and Kreigsmarine 9mm braid in gold open ended.
All buttons 2 rows of 5 down the front are Gold kreigsmarine.
Headress is a repo white german naval cap with gold coloured Polizei eagle.
Hope this helps you a bit.
