Hussar 100, your post is an illustration of the Basic Special Operations Badge which is worn on the Canadian Forces (CF) Distinctive Environmental Uniform (DEU) and not the field uniform. Here is an example of the actual badge.

Ed, What are the qualifications? and, Who is entitled to the badge?

[edstorey]

I have no idea what the qualifications are to wear this badge although my best guess would be that if an individual is qualified as Special Operations Basic then that person can wear the badge. Whether or not the badge can be worn when a person is not serving in a Special Forces capacity; again I do not know.

Thanks Ed. So many questions. With so much new insignia being adopted, an entire new chapter for collectors is being created. Unfortunately, the rationale and procedures are not easily found. There should be more clarity. The meaning of the badges is important to the larger audience, not just the wearer.

Thanks Ed. It's a super badge. One of those ones which makes you want to join the unit so you can get to wear it - a bit like 17/21st Lancer mottoes.

There is also this one, not sure they go together.

The assaulter's badge is worn by "door kickers" in JTF2.

This is what the Assaults Badge looks like.

Thank you for the real badge images.
