Arm Badge for French Volunteers??

[jamest8]

Gentlemen

I have just come across this. Is it for members of the PSZ who originated in France? Is that correct?

Comments welcome on the badge too

Many thanks

Hi James, yes, you're correct, for volunteers from France. The dark navy blue backing indicates that this was for a navy volunteer. The insignia appears genuine.

No trouble at all James. Volunteer patches with khaki backing were for ground forces, and grey-blue for air force.

Cheers,
