Red diamond
It may be a coincidence, but the 5th US Infantry Division wore a red diamond. I’ve not seen one with a ‘5’ embroidered on it though.

Probably completely wrong but Royal Artillery rings a bell.

There are Artillery badges with the colours reversed in this great album.

I too have never seen a US 5th Division with the number 5 in it. The US patch is also a more elongated diamond. Even if it were a one-off, I doubt it would be allowed to be worn.

Possibly related to 5th Infantry Brigade Group? I know it lacks the crossed keys but shows a lot in common with the examples in Mills BoBD.

Aguilette
Hi All, Seem to have a small run of unknown items (or at least ones that I can't get info on after loads of research).
This ones funny, came in with items labelled 'British Cavalry' |

That looks like a fourragere of a type worn in the US Marine Corps, French and other armies.
