Hi Junior,
Jack is right about the badge.
I believe I have read somewhere it is not the 21st, but the two-one army group, but I could be wrong here.
The size of the blouse is nice, condition seems mint at first sight. With a bit of luck you can find them cheaper I think, send me a PM if you want a good address OK?
Cheers, Luc

Hi Junior, the blouse is a good original one, but too expensive I feel, at almost £80.
The insignia is for 21 Army Group as Jack mentioned. 21 Army Group was Monty's command and was named after taking the numbers from British 2nd Army and the Canadian 1st Army. Techically it should not be called "21st" Army Group, but "Two-One Army Group"
Luc you posted as I was writing You most likely read it in Brian Davis' book
Cheers, Ade.

Originally posted by KevanCan anyone confirm that the crossed swords specifically make it a patch for the HQ of 21 Army Group, rather than one of the Army support units?
What a coincidence Ade, yes I read Brian Davis, but he says without the swords is HQ too. I believe he is wrong here.
