Hi!
Some days ago one my friend from Kurland (Libau) was comming to Riga to make some latvian army stuff deals with me. He also bring some other items. I think three of this items is estonian. About them I have some questions to You.

1) Marine officer visor cap's badge (pict.Nr.1-2). In the middle of badge some emblem is missing.
Badge was found in one old house attics in Libau. Maybe before war Libau was visit marine officer from other country (Estonia?) and present this badge to some latvian marine officer...
Is this badge estonian? It is military or civil marine badge?

2) Estonian badge (pict.Nr.3-5) and estonian medal (pict.Nr.6-7).
That two items was found in one burned bunker in Kurland. Badge was plated by gold.
Which estonian organization's badge it is? Army? Kaitseliit?
I think this medal is very common, but it shows as some estonian volunteers was in Kurland battle (Kurland pocket).

Best regards, KKK

Right look is like in photo's down:

1. This is really the Estonian Navy officers' cap badge .
2. The other one with the coat of arms in the wreath is Forresters' badge.

Thanks for the reply!

This naval officer cockade is earlier or late model? Is it possible to buy or change missing parts of this cockade?

So in the battles of Kurland pocket participated former Estonian Forester...

1919-1925 the upper shield was different, with national colors, since the coat of arms was not regulated yet.
1926-1940 the upper shield was with three lions.
