Default RAF Cloth items from Burma Campaign.

Here are a few RAF items that were part of a group of items brought home by a U.S Officer at the end of WW2. While my title reads Burma these could likely have been worn in India also. Most all of the pieces in the group however had a Burma connection.

How intersting, whilst I am familiar with the RAF Regiment badge, I can't say I have seen anything quite like the black on khaki RAF ones before.

Can I ask what the dimensions of them are?

Fasinating, many thanks for sharing the images

They measure 68 x 21 mm. Can you tell me the significance of lettering in Black vs Red on these type slips?
Thanks
