Default a few new patches

hi all
really like these older Australian unit patches. dont know why, but interested in others from the 1950s - 1970s if anyone has any.
they are pretty self explanitory but any information on them appreciated.
who wore them and what period.
the mortar Pl and the 41 Batt are RNSWR
the RAEME and School of Health
not sure of the armoured
and not sure of the top middle patch and the bottom middle patch

cheers

I can't help, but love the one top right...of course!

You do seem to find lots of awesome pieces - well done!!!

Could bottom middle be Vietnam in-theater made? It does have that look to it.

Nope. Looks like a 1970s/80s patch. HQ 2DIV never went to Vietnam.
