    British? Patches

    Hi Guys, I picked up another collection of odd patches. 95 in all, many of French but there is a mix of US, Canadian, British and ????? I'm hoping members can help me with a few of them. If you can also indicate to me which ones are rarer as well, great!.

    Cheers,

    Greg

          The badge top centre is Belgian, post war if my memory serves me correctly.

                Hi
                Top left: 105th [Madras] Line of Communication Area. Top middle: I agree with Des, the sign is that of the Belgian 4th Division.

                    Hi,

                    Bottom right: Red six point star. U.S. 6th Infantry Division [3rd pattern]
                    had the same style and colour star.

                      Hi,

                      Bottom left: Black trident and bow embroided on to a red felt six point star. This formation sign is that of the 'Nepal Army H.Q.'
                      There is another version where the trident is gold wire embroided on to a red felt six point star.

                      Regards
                      Arthur

                          So we're still working on the one patch next to the Panda,tghe top middle one is Belgian post-war?, and the top right one which may be Canadian. Thanks to you all for id'ing most of these. I've posted a few more and some with an obvious para theme in the International section. I appreciated all your help.

                          Cheers,

                          Greg
