These were not factory made but were locally produced by the men themselves in PoW Camps.

As Adrian says these were never factory made and were a field made badge mainly done while being POWs

Hi guys
Yes Im aware of that and also that there were variations on types of metal etc. I understand that it didnt originally come with any cloth backing and that may be a later addition but I was hoping someone may have knowlegde of the FAB marking on the backing paper and had maybe seen it before on other backing cloths or material in general.
-
You bent the tabs 90 degrees and removed the backing???????

Carefully !!!! better to do that and check instead of discovering it said Made in Taiwan at a later date !!!!
-
Check out this thread " Cholm Shield Fake with FAB stamp " I believe I've seen other fake shields elsewhere on the forum with the same backing paper stamp , Regards Paul
-
