Default Can anyone identify this badge..?

Hi..picked this one up recently, mainly because it intrigued me, was hi quality bullion...my searching hasnt uncovered anything to date and am hoping someone out there can assist...appears Para-Military/Marine, more probably British..nice bullion, aged nicely...thread is WWII type, but most probably much newer...any assistance would be great..
thanks in advance..

Default Hello

Hi Pink

This would appear to be a post WWII German "Combat Swimmer (Para)badge, on dark blue would indicate for Winter uniform.

Regards
Destro
