James,
If you mean the 42nd East Lancashire Divisional badges, (the coloured numbers on diamonds), those are nothing to do with the 6th VB, they were introduced in WW1 and worn by Territorial Bn's on their upper arms and occasionally on their Wolsley Helmets.
Could you repeat the question, and I will try to answer it now I know what you are referring to bythe term colour patches.
regards
