Default Patches

Bought a few odds and ends today but cannot find out anything on the yellow and green Patch. Came with ww1 broken spur patch so possibly Ww1 also, any thoughts?

It wasn’t a lozenge, I thought it was something else.

It was a square, diagonally split with the green and yellow. Not a lozenge or diamond
I have the image on my iPad viewing history.
Not appropriate for me to repost
