Donald Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 This pair of wings measures 3" across and is made of thin stamped brass with worn silver plate and black paint. I appreciate your information concerning the unit and its history. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_01_2014/post-8249-0-33216700-1389024783.jpghttp://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_01_2014/post-8249-0-86712300-1389024799.jpg
Rogi Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 Almost looks like a Croatian insignia in the center, odd :S they may have similar symbols but I'm stumped :D
Dave Danner Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 It is Israeli. A cmmando qualification, but I can't remember which one (Israel has a lot of different special operations units).
Rogi Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) It is Israeli. A cmmando qualification, but I can't remember which one (Israel has a lot of different special operations units).Batman qualification badge ! hehehehe sorry I had to mention the Batman I think it is a Navy Commando similar to seals IDF badge If you check ebay there are similar ones around :) Edited January 6, 2014 by Rogi
Dave Danner Posted January 6, 2014 Posted January 6, 2014 Sad thing is, I have one and couldn't remember what it was. Naval commando sounds right. Mine is the master version (star and wreath). Here it is mixed in with some other Israeli insignia:
Donald Posted January 6, 2014 Author Posted January 6, 2014 Thanks so much for your help everyone. Without a proper identification I had suspected from the wear and honest patina that the old wing was a WW2 relic!
