Default Shield shaped anchor badge Burma theatre
I have read that the circular cloth anchor badge represents G.H.Q. Troops Engineers and was worn by Beach Groups during the Normandy landings.

The Telegraphist in this photograph taken in Burma appears to have a shield shaped patch. Can anyone please inform of its meaning in the Far East context? Is it just a 14th Army variation of the G.H.Q. Troops Engineers badge?
