Hi Laurent

AFPS = Armed Forces Parliamentary Scheme, worn by Members of Parliament visiting military units.

The first one is for Officer Cadets at RAF College Cranwell, they can be found on three different backgrounds. I think the second is for Army recruits at Catterick.

I have just been given (waiting for it to arrive) the bullion cap badge to the Armed Forces Parliamentary Scheme so now need to source the shoulder slip on.
Jerry
P.S. The irregular shape is due to my useless cutting out from a print of the badge.

Thank you for these identifications

I have found a picture with AFPS slide worn. Seems to be the RAF pattern

Default Armed Forces Parliamentary Scheme

Here is a temperate dpm version.

Presumably there is now an MTP version?
