Various Colour Patches for Identification Revisited
 
1 Attachment(s)
After I posted the small lot of colour patches I acquired last month and requested help identifying them, a friend gave me about half a dozen more, plunging me back into the unknown. Once again, I tried the internet and have tentative IDs, but would appreciate the confirmation or corrections of members here:

1. Headquarters, 7th Australian Division
2. Schools and Training Units, Second Australian Army
3. 3rd Australian Corps – Royal Australian Engineers
4. 1st Australian Corps – Australian Army Ordnance Corps
5. 3rd Australian Corps – Australian Army Ordnance Corps
6. 3rd Australian Corps Troops – Australian Army Service Corps
7. Field Survey Units, RAE

Your assistance is greatly appreciated!

Hi Dob,

I think No 4 might be HQ 3 Aust Corps - it looks black not dark blue and is of a material I would associate with Western Australian manufacture, not anything that a very rare 1 Aust Corps AAOC patch would be made of.

Once again many thanks, Keith! Yes, I think it is black, so will make the appropriate change to my notes. I would doubt very much there was anything rare in either of the two groups, I'm just hoping for a variety of examples to represent the Australian army.
