The bottom one seems to be based on the 'A A' badge of the US 82nd Airborne Division.  One of the support units to that formation?

The top one is the WW2 [until 1995] badge of the British 4th Infantry Division, but should be rotated so that the cut out 'fourth' is in the 9:00t0 12:00 position.

Besides the UK 4th Infantry Division insignia, which Peter correctly identified, the black/red triangle patch is the insignia of the UK 3rd Infantry Division, whilst the bottom "AF" patch is that of the Allied Force Headquarters in the North Africa invasion 1942/1943.

I'd suggest you post these queries in a more relevant discussion forum than the Police Forces of the World.

      I like my tea strong enough for my spoon to stand up in. My father got me into it. When my father was at RAF Dum Dum 1943-47 most of his fellow officers drank ice cold drinks to mitigate  the heat, his Sikh batman warned him against it and said that strong hot tea would cool him down, most certainly did. So years later in the UK when everybody else was drinking iced drinks on a baking day the wood family was inbibing copious quantities of hot strong brews of Assam's finest. P
