Photo two shows two Canadian badges: Mobile Command and Service Battalion, of which there are a number in the Canadian Forces. They provide admin, transport, supply and other services to brigade groups.
Here's what one source says about the Mobile Command badge: "Command Badges were also introduced, as the armed forces were reorganized into Commands. The Army became known as Force Mobile Command and wore a maple leaf with four arrows protruding from it; at first, this badge was worn on both sleeves of the battledress, and was later redesigned as a metal badge worn on the right breast pocket of the CF Jacket and later DEU Jackets." Badge was worn from the 1960s - unification of the Forces - to the 1980s.
