I don't suppose someone could tell me what these are, might have been my Granddad's.

8th Army / British troops in Austria and, I think, scout (why am I now thinking National Savings? - it's scout).

8th Army
I think the 8th Army formation sign is one that was locally made in Italy.

There were 2 different sizes of the Boy Scout NS badge issued during WW2. They didn't issue dated badges like the guides did with the dated year bars (and weirdly like the scouts did in WW1).

That is the smaller (more commonly found) one - I am no where near my Scout Badges so cannot give you the measurements on the large one at the moment
