Helolo,

I need help with an "ID" of these signs. They look Indian maybe post 1947.





Thank you

John

Thank you iffig.

I wonder if the other is a Pakistan Army patch based on the WW II Indian 14th Div.

Here are the documents I have gathered about Pakistan Army formation Signs. The first two (actually only one chart) had been sent to me some years ago by a correspondant from India. He said to me it was from a book published by the Indian armed services, but I am quite unsure. The third has been published some years ago in the French review "Raids". There are diferences between the two documents (this is not surprising as Pakistan Army is very secret conscious). The point is that these documents do not feature your other badge which could very well be Indian in the end.

Thank you.
From the charts the shape does not look like it would be Pakistan.

I do see some of the WW II British Indian army shown for them.

Thanks again
John
