    Hello

    Can anyone please identify this badge please. I’m unsure of its nationality or age. It looks similar to the WW2 tank destruction badge.

    With the safety pin style pin I'd say British, also the tank looks British.
    This is more a patriotic pin than an award.

    Looks like an impression of a Valentine tank, looking at the arrangement of the wheels and the placement of the turret. But then, I've never been much of a 'tank man'. Couldn't say what the badge was for. A homemade 'sweetheart' pin, maybe?

    That looks like a regular safety pin. Possible it was added to the tank? Maybe the tank was attached to something else at one time (photo album?)
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    Ade will know for sure, of course! Likewise badges were worn
    in Germany, most often un-authorized as with the man from
    the RAD.
