Unknown collar badges australian or pacific islands?
hi all
I have asked this in the mystery section also however I think the aussie collectors may have a better idea? I have these collars. a pair of eagles, a single shark and I've seen a similar won with a palm tree. the palm tree in the shape of the palm of the Pacific Islands Badge they are anodised aluminium and made by Swan & Hudson. they are not Australian army, but I have a feeling it could be Pacific Island Rgt or Papua New Guinea. welcome all your thoughts bc |

Pacific island regiment
The singleton Infantry museum had a Pacific Islands Regiment display. The belt buckles they have on display have the same shark and bird symbols as your pictures. The belt buckles also have Pacific Islands Regiment title on them.
