SF badges
As nobody else has responded, here's my effort;
A) nobody in the Special Forces community will confirm or deny that anything is ever SF. It would compromise OPSEC which is operational security and PERSEC which is personal security.
B) of the very few who manufacture or collect SF insignia, some of whom visit this forum, nobody will confirm whether this is original as doors previously open may close (see A above)
C) if you have read the available info and looked at photos, including threads on here you will note that some dealers only need a sniff of an SF badge to start producing copies with which to make themselves a lot of money. Badges for the alleged SAS Squadrons A and B, and the SBS, have suffered this fate. We're obviously kept in the dark about other SF units such as the SRR, Special Recce Regiment and 18 Signal Regiment, including the Sigs Squadrons and Troops attached to other units, for a very good reason. The bad guys are always looking for info on SF units.
In short, the only info about this badge is "if it's real, we can't tell you, if it's fake you might just be told that it's NOT real".
