The badges with a border are for Warrant Officers, I do not have the dates at hand, but the Chute with wing are the early version of badge for service in the Parachute Service and those without are later. Orange is the Arm of Service colour, the small Chute and wing badge is one of the badges worn on the beret. The large blue badge is not a uniform badge.

The blue badge denotes Free Fall. It may be a Basic version
