Your badge in the middle (with the sword) is actually a New Zealand badge... Regular Force Cadets and for troops stationed at Fanning Island during WW2..the cadet title probably goes with it but am not sure...

The large bronze finish button bears the coat of arms of Morpeth. I put a smaller version for ID on the Forum but no-one seems to know who wore them.
