Unidentified kfor cloth badge

[ORISKANY]

Can anyone out there please give me a positive identification of the badge shown. I do not recognise it as being a British army item so what is it?

[Gurkha]

Hi could it be the patch worn by the british police contingent attached to KFOR ?
Ive e mailed mate who was with them to see if it is.

There are many KFOR patches showing up on the market that appear to be strictly fantasy pieces. There are a couple of vendors that are pumping out patches on ebay that I can't find any documented use by any armed forces.
Please do let us know if that patch was used by the British contingent.

These KFOR patches came with different flags of the nations serving in Kosovo. Bought alot of them at the PX shops in KFOR HQ Pristina, my thought is that they are just souvenir patches.

These are not official issue and I certainly never saw any such item ever being worn in KFOR. I would agree that they are commercial items.

It's a natural assumption for Brits to link the colours blue & white to police, it always seemed strange to me that in BiH SFOR wore a blue & white shield & IPTF a very similar badge in black & yellow.

Bonjour,

I confirm Evjebro's post. I have seen such patches in the Prisitna "Fim City" PX alley. They are available with the different flags of the countries involved in the mission. I'm not sure at 100% but a lot of these novelty patches came from Croatia.

Cheers

The Canadian example of the SFOR badge, same type as the same badge at the top of the thread.
