Fire Brigade Badge

[The Badger]

After searching and googling the web I come to the font of all knowledge GMC for information on this badge, I am sure it must be a Fire badge with crossed axes and a helmet, but which one and what country. I await the answers to flood in from GMC members. The badge has 2 EW loop fixings and is approx 44mm dia.

Thanks in advance Alan

Hi Alan - haven't seen you post for a while. I wish I could assist on this badge - but, I've always found that so many

Fire Brigade look the same. Didn't Ian have an Idea ? Anyway, let's hope one of the members will recognise it ? Mervyn

Alan, it could be a British Fire Services Association badge but I am not sure. Ian.

Hi chaps,

This is my first posting and I hope the info I give is correct! I'm 99% sure this is a UK Industrial Fire Services badge, probably a collar badge. Not sure which Brigades would have worn it but probably private and factory brigades that didn't have their own badge (unlike such as ICI, Rolls Royce etc). I think it's a 1960's / 70's badge.
