Default 27th Commonwealth Infantry Brigade patches

hi all
just thought id show these 27th Commonwealth Infantry Brigade patches.

The 27th British Commonwealth Brigade was formed by the armies of the British Commonwealth during the Korean War.
On the night of 25-26 April 1951, 27 British Commonwealth Infantry Brigade officially became 28 British Commonwealth Infantry Brigade, under which title it fought for the remainder of the Korean War. Australian troops normally wore the 27 Brigade formation sign on the puggaree of their slouch hats.

there are 4 different versions. the screenprinted, bullion, cotton embroidered and the really badly faded silk japanese made version.

anyone know what the 2 larger patches are for? one in bullion and one cotton/silk embroidered

i am always interested in adding to this collection if anyone has anything 27th or 28th related to them. please pm me

regards
BC
