The Navy [Kriegsmarine]

    The German Navy holds a long and honorable tradition. Unlike the other services, German Navy uniforms and accouterments have been historically slow in reflecting change. For example, the German Navy edged weapons which remain in service today bear only a minor modifications to the edged weapons carried by members of the Royal Prussian Navy in the mid-nineteenth century. Although the Versailles Treaty signed after World War I seriously limited any sizeable overt expansion of the German Navy, covert submarine production continued outside the country. When Hitler gained power in 1933, he immediately boosted the Navy to a formidable military force under the aegis of Admiral Erich Raeder. Raeder remained at the helm of the German Navy for the next fifteen years, when he was replaced by Admiral Karl Donitz. Early in the war, German U-boats were the nemeses of Allied sailors throughout the Atlantic Ocean. As anti-submarine warfare was perfected by the Allies, heavy combat losses were inflicted on the Germans.
