Real or Fantasy
Hello,

SF HQ
A real design originating in North Africa post Op Torch or in Italy I believe, but this is far from being a genuine item. It's about as authentic as the LRDG titles and other "WW2 SF" items listed by the same vendor. There must be a genuine SF HQ flash out there somewhere, but I've never seen one.

SF HQ - HQ formed in late 1944 to act as liaison between SOE and OSS. A dark blue disc, white letters SF and red HQ. Worn on left shoulder by OSS personnel. (The line drawing that accompanied this showed the letters S and F being the same height). Mike |

Thank you, I know that my references are not the best but I see one I have never seen before I like to know abut the pattern. I did see his other items and that made me think it is not a good one. It does not sound like there would have been very many and very high starting would be the thing. John |
