Veteran Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Hello JeffBadges are not really my field, but I hate to think that you could remain without some kind of a reply. The only one I can tell is the very first : Gendarmerie for one of the Regions (Provinces) in Metropolitan France. Gendarmerie is a national police force whose men are drawn from the armed forces, to which they continue to belong; they are distinct from the National Police and the Republican Security Companies (C.R.S.) who are members of the Ministry of the Interior (Home Office).I hope the three other badges are identified for you.Merry Xmass Personnal regardsVeteran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBFloyd Posted December 24, 2007 Author Share Posted December 24, 2007 That's a start. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul L Murphy Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Are there any numbers on the reverse prefixed with G or H ? These are official military heraldry registration numbers so I can find out what the insignia are if I know the number (since I have the list).
