The lion would be the badge of 1st Belgian Armoured Car Squadron in England during WW2

It is certainly a very odd example that appears to have lost it's finish!

Is the.lion not "Free Belgian" rather than a specific unit? |

The third badge along if I'm right is the Chinese Labour Corps, from WW1 and if genuine very rare.

I think the POW Feathers with the brooch fittings are Indian Army - I think one of the Sappers & Miners regiments. But a number of Indian Army units wore POW feathers - depends on the exact style. I'll have a dig through my references this evening.
