Bottom left, I believe to be a submariners sleeve badge. Others I have no idea.
Two on the right are officers badges. Phil

Hello
A _______ B nm%20001%20(550x485).jpg C _______ D The badge in A has been discussed in http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...ad.php?t=18287 The B badge is also in my collection : UK_aux_40_v.JPG and indeed is silver embroidered. This badge was worn by officers on board Admiralty owned naval auxiliaries (not RFA nor Transport vessels) so mainly tugs & others port services. Tug captains cap badge.jpg To note : between 1974 and 2008 these harbour services were amalgamated into the Royal Maritime Auxiliary Service (RMAS) The RMAS ensign had two wavy lines under the horizontal anchor, but I have never seen a badge with these lines.
