Default RA badges

Good evening,

is it possible to date these badges ? The first one is a "plastic" one by Stanley but why a red cloth backing, and the third one by Gaunt Thank you

The plastic is WW2, the backing because it was worn on headdress such as beret, GS cap etc.

The OSD collar badge is still being worn today and has been unchanged for well over 100 years.

the last one is an OSD collar badge of the Royal Engineers.

regards
