No idea on the first, apart from that I don't think it's military.

Second badge is Duke of Edinburghs Royal Regiment, 1959-93.

Not use about the construction of the slider though, is this a Birmingham mint badge?

Cheers,

Andy C

I was going to guess catholic and perhaps from Quebec Canada, before I saw the Belgian maker reference. Well done, Didier.

I believe 'routier" has to do with long distance driving/travelling so I wonder if it might loosely translate as something like 'marcher' or 'hiker'.
