Default 4th Devons, but what division?
Hi All,

Can anyone please help identify which division the attached formation patch, which I think belongs to the 4th Devons in WW2, designates.

Many thanks.

4 Devons served in 45,55 and 61 Inf Divs in WW2 - and also I believe in 2 Gibraltar Inf Bde from Apr 41 - Apr 43. Consequently never fought in action in WW2.

Just to clarify, the patch you have shown is not a divisional sign, it is for 4th Devons and they would have worn it underneath the sign of the division to which they were attached as well as arm of service strip(s)
