The Matrosen Regiments along with naval artillery batteries and naval air squadrons were stationed in Flanders on the Western Front and along the Belgian coast from 1914-18. The regiments were quickly expanded to divisional strength and along with the Naval Infantry Division (formed from the Seebataillone) became the Flanders Marine Corps ("Marinekorps Flandern"). In addition to the personnel in Flanders other sailors served in a Marine Pioneer Company on the Somme Front in 1916.
The caps are exact reproductions, not cheap conversions made in the far east with no historical research. They are exactly like the originals and are made just like the blue navy caps but in grey/green wool. Cotton threads on the cap support the tally if you purchase one so it is easily removable.
These come without a Tally (The name band round the cap) but you can buy a tally here.
These come in authentic grey/green wool and enlisted Reich cockade.
