They both are from German Naval Officers that served in the Uboat fleet, but i think both officers served aboard surface ships before these pictures.

I thought it was the German Cross but i thought the German Cross goes on the Right breast pocket not the left? And the Minsweeper badge, thats good i thought it was that, but i dont know if its the picture but it looks like there is a line running across the badge so thats y i didnt think it was the Minesweeper badge.

thanks for the Help guys
