Default "1st Division Commonwealth"

Hello,

I'd like to ask about this badge - is it a fantasy piece?

http://www.befr.ebay.be/itm/UNITED-NATIONS-ONU-UNO-COREE-KOREA-1950-1-DIVISION-COMMONWEALTH-/130676471203?pt=FR_JG_Collections_Militaria_Unifor mes&hash=item1e6cecb5a3

Listing has nothing to do with me by the way, I'm just curious.

BP

But the nine digit number works. A fanatsy piece - blazer badge - I would have thought - why on earth would the scroll read 1st Division Commonwealth? Looks like Franglais to me.

Thought something of the sort!

Why a British soldier wouldn't have been able to speak proper English is beyond me !

Thanks for your help,
