Canadian Para Trade Badge?
Dear All,
I first placed a photo of this badge in the British section but have been told it is possibly a Canadian trade badge. I was wondering if anybody could tell me anymore about it, or which unit it relates to. Any help would be great, Johnnie |

So would that mean the badges are for a Safety Euiptment Tech CPO?
Also, would the badge have been sewn to the uniform in one piece, or would it have been cut in half (so is it actually two badges)? Johnnie |

hi, they would be cut in half, yes. some of the other trades have left and right versions when you get the uncut pairs.

Hi Johnnie, here are two pictures shoing the way trade badges are/were worn on PO jackets.
