francophile50 Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 I have come acrossed this insignia in multiple auctions. Many think it is Belgian. If so can anyone tell from what branch and date? Scott

francophile50 Posted February 12, 2011 Author Posted February 12, 2011 Thank you Uwe. I kinda thought it looked Belgian. BTW is there a place where one can ask to identify insignia when they don't know the nationality? Scott
belgoman Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Hello gents, this is a Belgian schoulder badge worn from 1950 till 1971, it is for the RASC from 1950-1951 and for the Transport Regiments from 1951 till 1971. After that period the regiments became Logistics (Logistique) and had other badges. The badges come in pair with the wings facing left and facing right. Yhey exist in brass/cupper for the soldiers, silvered for the NCO's and gilted for the officiers. The shown badge is for the soldeirs in bright brass colour version. Hope this could help^; friendly yours
