Another ‘new’ member from The Netherlands
I have been a reading member for a very long time, recently I have re-discovered the Forum.
My name is Richard, from The Netherlands, I started collecting badges and insignia about 40 years ago. First mainly dutch, then US and UK paras, commandos, special forces, etc. Furthermore I have been a member for a long time of both Chute & Dagger UK and C&D US. Since 25 years my focus is on dutch insignia again, mainly WW2 (incl. some British badges worn by dutch), paras, commandos and marines ….. and army and ribbon, a bit too much sometimes. My modest collection of British badges have been waiting in boxes for a very long time. All were obtained pre-internet era, so I suppose most of them will be restrikes/copy/fakes. My knowledge on British badges and insignia is very limited, especially how to identify a good one. The many varieties of badges and the pretty long time of existence doesn’t make it easier.*I hope some forum-members can help me ID-ing these in the near future. I would like to thank Postwarden for the encouragement of this introduction. Richard |
