31 Armoured Brigade
Hi,
Does anyone here have a grouping of insignia from a veteran of the 31 Tank/Armd Brigade (1944-1945). I am looking for photos of genuine British examples of the green hourglass (diablo) patch.
In my research of the 1st Canadian Armd Carrier Regiment (att'd 31 Armd Bde) it seems the "Canadian kangaroos made their own, "in-theatre" patch and would like to compare in construction, shape to genuine British patches. Perhaps the British veterans did the same while in NWE? This patch seems quite rare (in Canada anyway) and I have only seen a very small sampling of genuine patches.
Any assistance would be much appreciated!
Bill.
