Hi Eddie,
Yes, I do have a picture of the early T.O.L. badge, though it is only a newspaper cutting. However, it does show the crossed knives badges pplainly enough. A scan is attached.
I have both badges , plus the later one, in my collection, but canot lay hands on them at the moment. Will sort them out and let you have scans of the badges alone.
I have a number of Omani badges - and of course, queries. Would you be able to translate the Arabic inscriptions on them, please? Many of them I already have, through the Omani Embassy, but I have acquired other items since. You can reach me on
bcrowe@tiscali.co.uk, if you wish.
Regards,
Brian
