I haven't seen this Merchant Navy flash. It appears to be Canadian made. Perhaps a special purchase by the sailor?

Thanks Mike, appreciate that.
As he appears to have had Canadian service in 2WW why not get Arnie Kay to check & see if there might be a file on him in LAC? I don't know if there are MN records held in LAC but Arnie would know. Bryan
