thanks guys
yes i understand the pattern is aussie or british but this patch is circa 1960s i believe. but what material is it on? not the usual naval colours. does the cloth give away the nationality?

hi all
it has been suggested that this patch is Royal Australian Navy Clearance Divers Team from vietnam era.
this came with a heap of other vietnam period items.
