Australian cloth patches

[Anodisedbob]

Hi picked these up today, the cadet rank slides look old. The three triangles I have no idea what they are, but they are three different patterns, can you advise please
Thanks bob

The triangles (worn point up) were used by the RAAF during the 1950s and 60s, but that's as much as I know about them.

The Cadet ones are Air Training Corps patches - circa 1960s/1970s from memory.

im pretty sure the triangle colour patches are Australian air force cadet as apposed to ATC air training corps. or maybe they were used for both?

Picked them up this morning at a car boot on the outskirts of Brisbane, it was a box of cloth from around the world, so was not sure of “triangle” patches

After WW2 this type of colour patch was used for a short time by the Citizen's Air Force from memory ?

Agree with Jackhr, I got a pair of the triangle patches from a 22 Sqn officer in the 70's.
