Hello

Can you decypher the writing? It looks like a crude field made badge and not unusual to have an ordinary nut and bolt set-up as that is what was available i the workshops.

Regards

James

I think that the nicest examples of PAF badges, that I am familiar with were those made here in Great Britain during the war by Messrs Filski, in London, they certainly put the rest to shame.
