Default Boss badges

Quite outside my field of collecting or knowledge - could someone please tell me who will have worn this design of boss badge?

I think "this" one was queried on forum a couple of times a while ago, the bugle facing the "wrong" way.

The image I posted came to me from a collector in France who posed the question. Mike

I didn't mean the same example as shown in the linked thread but one that looks similar. The linked thread is inconclusive on identification, I thought there was another thread on these bosses but can't find it.

Thanks - one and all. I'll pass the various links back to France. Given the context, 5 MLI is a possibility I think. Mike
