"Heavy Rescue" is a Civil Defence title I think? As the name implies, the job that did, was using heavy machine plant equipment.

Just to confirm, you can only sell them on the E Stand if you actually own them

Sorry I cannot help with prices.

Cheers, Ade.

Actually, I think the interesting pieces are the formation signs in posts I & K. (I know Nothing!!! about prices).

The black swan is Aussie for sure- West Australia, I think - and the pauir of dice is probably a Bridage or smaller formation sign, both WWII, I think. Quite ubusual, I'd think - more so than any unit badge.

my tuppence worth

The Swan is the 51st independent infantry brigade and the dice is described in an earlier post .I would offer her £30 for the lot then bung them on ebay except for the commando which I would keep.Rob.

Hiya , A NICE MIXED BAG , the regimental titles vary in construction from early war right through to postwar , price ******163;2 / 3 the commando is fine and the royal navy is a bit rare , the heavy rescue again is a nice one but a bit ` ropey ` ,the 12th anti aicraft div ,is a nice rare one ( double six domino ) they were based up in the Clyde in Scotland were very much involved in defending the ship yards of Belfast from the german bombers , AS ALWAYS CONDITION is a bid plus if your selling ,regards ,Michael.
