This is not included in Juha E.Tetri ww2 Finnish unit sleeve insignias and brotherhood-in-arms badgess book. But some unknown unit badge still exist, as they were un-official things.
Triangle shape is is common theme in them. Spruce would be JR6, but this is not it, real thing is different, small 30mm high thing.
It would help what kind of diary it was in, what was the text about. Travel diary or war stuff? I would guess this could be travel badge of some location. ww2 in Finland ended 1944.
Speculating about text.

Stretching about things. AuK. would be NCO school in military terms. I know that NCO schools did continue producing their own individual badges at least till year 1948-49. Continuing 20years old tradition of pre-war and during war-time about making own unique brotherhood-of-arms badges for their NCO courses. Could be one of those, lovers owned badge, but in cloth. And military service time was 18 months back then.
yea that could be posibble cos some of these writers been quite young soldiers approaching to 20...
i didn't understand what you mean by these but there's actually thread for these so bit like this Lauri Törni badge ("strange looking") triangle shapes etc...
well anyways first thought that could it be early scouts badge kind similarities there or it might be some skiing center badge...
but self made 40s NCO course brotherhood-of-arms badge sounds very possible thanks for theories again!
