On another board, this was posted. Does this help identify the eagle, etc. I've just looked through 'Flags of the third Reich' by Brian Davis (surprisingly interesting book) and though there's none that exactly match yours, the only ones illustrated with that particular style of eagle appear to be '...

From another source, l was told the boat was renamed Vorpostenboot VP 1108 and was sunk on 2nd August 1942, but l know this not to be so as VP 1108 was one of the tugs used to tow HSL 1087 into port. I beleive that Sendwarden may have survived the conflict as l understand that a 100 class boat was p...

The launch was recovered and taken to Borkum and then Wilhelmshaven from which point, l believe that it was renamed 'Sengwarden' as part of 1./Sperrbecher Flottilla. During the war,...
