    British Free Corps insignia, any thoughts?


    Recommended Posts

    Hi Gents,

    it’s not my usual thing so I was hoping someone can give me an opinion on these 3 patches please.

    They were in this little job lot that was so cheap I can’t imagine the seller thought they were of any age or value.

    So I too have no expectations but it’s nice to check.,,

    A few close ups…

     

    This design of English Free Corps insignia I’ve seen noted as ‘issue doubtful’ and also one source describes it as Estonian.

    This one less intact..,

    This last one is from an M43 possibly?

    Does the colour indicate a light colour cap maybe Afrika Korps?

    Any thoughts welcome as always Gents.


    **. I fully expect them to be reproductions so you don’t need to spare my feelings.

     

    cheers

    Hi Gents,

    this might be a little more interesting.

     

    By chance, someone gave this to me today, unrelated to the stuff above.

    It’s about 4 inches long.

    Looks like a Viking image behind.

     

    Any thoughts Gents?
