A bit of speculation Dave, but I think VLS stands for Volunteer Service League?

Once and awhile lady luck is on your side. I picked this up recently. Vendor thought it was an English title. Research can pay off!

Hi

A recent win for me. Quite happy as I seem to have gotten quite the deal.

Thought I'd add pics for Forum ref purposes.

A large badge at 60mm x 50mm.

regards
Darrell
