Lesotho ‘Police Mobile Unit’ badge?

Season’s greetings

As part of a Boxing Day ‘splurge’ on some badges I’ve been eyeing-up for a while this arrived earlier today. Am I right that it is/was used by the Royal Lesotho Mounted Police ‘Police Mobile Unit’? And where on the uniform would it be worn? It measures (w) 53 mm x 63(h) so is the right size for a cap, but a bit small for a sleeve.

Many thanks for looking

Graham

I wonder how many P.M.U.s they had/have. this is obviously an arm badge but quite different to "Chacal's" any follow up? Regards, David J.

Hi, I agree it is an arm badge. I would say that they are an earlier and later manufacture rather than for 2 different units. Regards Andrew

Fair comment Andrew but as my other Royal Lesotho Defence Force arm badge has the same logo in it as my previous post and the one shown at Chacal's post is completely different (With a Cross? in the centre motive) I thought there may be a number of different units. Regards, David J.

Hi David, maybe a subsection of the same unit. Like medics for instance. The make up of the badge still looks like a different time period to me. Have fun. Andrew
