My main collection is of military cloth badges world wide (Formation signs, Unit badges), but I also was a leader in the Scout movement for a number of years and became interested in collecting Scout Group badges as well.
I hope these may be of interest.
Now if the last badge had been facing the other way, that would have answered a lot of questions.

Do you know if it was continued to be worn as an embroidered version?
