Looks like an escape map-the aircrew maps were more substantial

I've got one that covers France and Belgium

although I believe in the 50's/60's a company made scarves for the civillian high street market that looked like escape maps and have been sold as such

NEVLAN VAKIOKOR JAUS

Any suggestions

Hi

The Austarlian badge is slightlly different as there is no anchor on it-there are jokes made about it that are probably not for this forum-but its to do with Prince phillip the Queens husband

Cheers

Hi

Either WW1 or Reichswehr although I'd go with WW1-no Eagle and Swatika on the hats or visible on the uniform-maybe someone can be more specific

Cheers

Perce

Hi

Hi Guys

What award is this? -the recipient is WW2 and Post War RAF killed in an accident in 1948- the photo is taken in 1946 so trying to work out if its a foreign/commonwealth award issued for wear by RAF airmen -he was an air gunner- Any ideas?-the IWM stated it may be a Luftwaffe WW1 award (don't think so !!!!!!!!!!!!)-it's being worn on the left hand pocket of the battledress just so you know!!!

Cheers
