North Korean parachute badge query

[achern]

Guys, I have with me this parachute badge which is supposedly North Korean. It appears as No. 2214 in the second Bragg and Turner book.

Does anybody have any more information about it please?

Thanks for your comments.

I am not a expert on DPRK medal/badges,but I suggest if you can find anyone who understand korean on the badge to translate what it means first.The number might be a serial number.

Thanks for the note. I'm missing something here - where is the number you meantioned?

looking at the design: my guess it is a Dosaaf-like badge.

I've just seen another one like it, but with nice enamels and a thinner pin. The owner also does not know what the badge is for.

Could be Dosaaf, as there is known now the existence of a diamond-shaped parachute badge for the armed forces, but only one class seen so far.
