Many thanks for that Donovan - that's very helpful. I thought the Belarus wing was of a later official pattern given its styling.

Don't put yourself to too much bother Terry - the 1966 and 1968 Type badges along with the current style are only getting about £8 - £12. Not sure about the 1955 Type although the early 1936 Type badges in good nick appear to be making in the region of £100+.

Unfortunately not Mick - I have sold on most of my doubles etc and only have a few spare airborne and naval items left.
