U-boat Emblems


Flotilla emblems

All but 8 of the U-boat flotillas displayed an emblem. Many of the boats attached to those flotillas then used that same emblem. The most widely used Flotilla emblems seem to have been those of the 7th, 9th, 10th and 11th flotillas.

Many of the most famous emblems are seen here, most notably the Snorting Bull (7th) and the Laughing Sawfish (9th).
