WW2 Kriegsmarine Shore Guard (1 Viewer)

Can anyone shed some light on the uniform / equippment worn by German Sailors whilst guarding vessels and ports? Did this duty fall to specific units of was it performed by the ships company?

Thanks for any pointers

I believe that almost universally vessels in port were guarded by assigned crew members. Uniforms and equipment probably varied and would likely correspond to what was worn when on deck at sea according to climate. Best references would be period photos.
