Default Recent finds from a local insignia show.

Traveled to Kansas City this past weekend to attend our yearly ASMIC convention and show. Was fortunate and able to look over a small older cloth collection. Picked out some nice pieces. A few non British items mixed in. Several signs I have been unable to put an Id to. The piece below the yellow and green Border title and above it slightly to the left.

The white sign with the horn may be Belgian.

Thanks
Jack

The black horn on white shield is a good match for the coat of arms of Basel-Stadt (city), so could it be Swiss?

Above the BORDER title and red/blue sign (shown inverted - it should look like an M) is 110 Fd Regt RA. Below the title BORDER - with Eagle - is 646 LAA Regt RA(TA). They are John Waring, Pamphlet 1, 575 and 620 respectively. Mike

Jack,

The triangular patch is I believe a modern Air Training Corps patch - Australian as you have suggested.
