Deutsche Marine je naziv Njemačke mornarice koja je sastavni dio Bundeswhra. Mornarica je duboko integrirana u NATO savez. Zadaća joj je odbrana njemačke i teritorija zemalja saveznica te učestvovanje u misijama uvođenja i održavanja mira. Svoje korijene vuče još iz revolucionarnog doba 1848-52. godine, kada se zvala Carska flota (Reichsflotte). Osnovana je odlukom demokratski izabranog parlamenta u Hamburgu 14. 06. 1848., propašću revolucije, prestaje postojati i ta mornarica. Ipak je ovaj dan određen kao dan Njemačke ratne mornarice. Oni su i prva njemačka flota koja je plovila pod crno-crveno-zlatnom zastavom. Od 1945. do 1956. Njemačka administracija za čišćenje mina, sastavljena od bivših pripadnika hitlerove Kriegsmarine, postaju jezgra nove Njemačke mornarice. Osnivanjem Ratne mornarice ovi se kadrovi odmah uključuju u njen rad. Ujedinjenjem zemlje, Marine preuzima i bivšu mornaricu Istočne Njemačke "Volksmarine".

Oznaka za šapku

      The Deutsche Marine (is the navy of Germany and is part of the unified Bundeswehr (the German Armed Forces). It is deeply integrated into the NATO alliance. Its mission is protection of German and Allied territories as well as peace-keeping and peace enforcement operations. The Marine traces its roots back to the Reichsflotte (Empire Fleet) of the revolutionary era of 1848-52. The Reichsflotte was the first German Navy to sail under the black-red-gold flag. Founded on 14 June 1848 by the orders of the democratically elected Frankfurt Parliament the Reichsflottes brief existence ended with the failure of the revolution and was disbanded on 2 April 1852; thus, the modern Marine celebrates its birthday on 14 June. From 1945 to 1956, the German Mine Sweeping Administration and its successor organizations, made up of former members of the Kriegsmarine, became something of a transition stage for the Marine, allowing the future Marine to draw on experienced personnel upon its formation. In 1956, with West Germany's accession to NATO, the Marine was formally established. With the reunification of Germany in 1990 the Marine took over the former East German Volksmarine (“People’s Navy”).
