Yes, I have this one:
Intelligence Corps Field Security (FS) armlet. Locally made this one is marked 556 F.S.S. and is unfortunately badly mothed!
556 Field Security Section was located in Karachi from c1942 to 1947. The armlet is also marked No 11. FSS typically consisted of an officer and 12 NCOs.
Listed in the Catalogue of Clothing and Necessaries 1949 Section CB Armlets, Badges, Chevrons and Titles
CB1622 ARMLET Dark Green, Grey, Dark Green Unlettered
