Default Pics 4 & 5

I would say that the badge in photos 4 and 5 is a modification of the generic Russian Airborne service badge for the second rotation of the Russian battalion in Sarajevo in 1994.

In the third picture, the two with a white chute, blue backing and gold lines are Russian. The one with the planes is probably Air Assault, while the one with the creature head may be regiment specific. I have several of their jump wings that are similar. The wing with the red and blue ying and yang I would suspect is South Korean.
