I have rotated the image

Top left is a 1960's UK Boy Scout Berkshire county badge, bottom right is a UK Boy Scouts Patrol badge from the 1980's (ish) - I cannot recall which at this point in time

Many thanks Wooffy.

Bottom left (of the rotated image) looks like an award for summoning a demon, however, is it possibly for the handler of a regimental mascot "Goat Major" or such?

Hope all is well

Having skimmed through (if that is possible) Jon Mills 'Badges on Battledress' - the remaining badge appears to be item No745 - described as:
191st Field Regiment (RA) formed in Yorkshire on December 1942 from soldiers of of 86th (Hertfordshire Yeomanry) and 147th (Essex Yeomanry) Field Regiments, and 30th Battalion Wiltshire Reg. The mixed design appears logical to reflect these origins

(corrected to 'from soldiers of' - as written by Jon
I had incorrectly assumed merger - Thanks Expat Yeoman - my error)

[Expat Yeoman]

Yes 191st Field Regt RA. Not strictly a merger as both 86 and 147 continued but each donated a Battery to form this new unit.

Well Done Mike and confirmation from Expat, a job well done.

Thanks guys.

The Heraldic Bull rising from a Crown was the coat of arms of the first Bde Comd of 31 Indep Inf Bde in WW2 - Brig MEF Smyth (Bde Comd from 17 Jul 40).
The (very desirable) sign was isued for wear on 7 Jan 41. The sign came in facing pairs (and two sizes).

Corrected my post - revisited the book entry and says 'from soldiers of' as you say ... My error to assume merger - not technically correct ...
