Red Kangeroo of the German Paratroops

[yellow]

Hi Can anyone who knows their German parachute badges tell me which unit this badge represents?

The badge has no manufacturer marks.

Thank you,

Steve.

Steve - According my reference, German Airborne Insignia 1956-1992 by Harry Pugh, it belongs to the 260th Airborne Supply Company, 26th Airborne Brigade.

I'm pretty sure the Brigade has been re-organized, but I'm not sure of the present status of the 260th Airborne Supply Company. The unit's garrison was in Merzig, Germany.

It's a nice looking badge.

All the best - TJ

Thank you for the look up TJ very much appreciated. I was pulling my hair out trying figure out the significance of the Kangaroo!

Thank you again,

Steve.
