What an hilarious story about the MPP and its founder. Normally you can't make this stuff up, but then again someone seems to have done just that.!

Russian War Relief

I came across this badge. The back says "Official R.W.R.". Would this be similar to the British War Relief in the US? Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks

Unusual Para related badge

This was tucked away in a pile of badges. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what it is. The half-wing could indicate air supply.

I have ruled out the "Kingsman" connection :)

Thanks
