Uniform Unit Insignia of the Polish Army in Exile - 1939-45/7

[andrzejku98]

Hello Civil,

From the shape of the collar pennons I would say the following unit :

1) Armoured Forces

And to answer Alex the 7th Horse Artillery Regiment had a different collar pennon swallow tail in shape.

Best wishes

Bullion thread 8th Army patches anyone? Here's a sampling of the weird and wonderful I've picked up over the years:

Fantastic and comprehensive display Tony

Would these two miss matched bullion slip ons be Polish? Same question for the single bullion patch.

Hello Jerry,

Thanks for your kind words. The slip ons would not be Polish as the regulation location for the honourary 8th Army shield was on the right shoulder below the Poland title.

Cheers,
Tony

Thanks Tony. I had thought for KD that perhaps as slip ons were more likely to be worn, it was for that. They are not an actual pair, they came separately. but they were only ever worn on the sleeve below the Poland titles on all orders of dress, then they are not Polish.

Here is my pair of woven titles, late war or post war I thought.

Hello Ricardo Vidtory Museum,

Also with the Narvik Lanyard, does the Lanyard have the shield with the Crowned Lion ?
