SADF voluntary service award - British & Commonwealth Military Badge Forum

In the 1980's the then SADF awarded a breast (right) to reserve force members for 5 years good service additional after completion of the compulsory 10 years service. This was awarded with specfic badges for the Army, Navy and Medic's (Air Force did not have one). Replaced in 2004 with a single badge for all SANDF members. The Navy and the Medic's are very scarce and obsolete. The million dollar question has any one got a Medic's metal badge to swop for the Navy metal badge. If so please contact me.

Hi, the medic badge in the picture is a different variation to the one in my collection. I also have 2 variations of the navy badge

Hi, didn’t know there were different variations of the badge’s. Is it possible to get photos of the variations or just the details. Thanks, but if you hear of anyone with a spare medic badge please let me know.
