It's not a British badge that I recognize. The Brits wore very few pocket badges. None triangular.
The badge, although solid and triangular in shape, with a light background, appears to have an oval wreath on it. Central to the wreath is a device, which, after looking at it carefully, resembles an eagle with something in its talons? This would be a Luftwaffe aircrew symbol!
I would suggest that it is some sort of sweetheart badge, possibly acquired from a Jerry or an admirer who had nothing else to hand, which has been pinned to his pocket as a souvenir.
I could, of course, be completely wrong. But it is a good, if now completely lost, story.
