Default Royal Navy blanking patch
Chaps, I picked this up this morning, purely as I'm not familiar with this version of the RN badge. I havent seen the green backing before. Can anyone shed any light on this for me at all? Is it a 'made up' thing, cut from something else?

Regards all

Bess

Hi Mr B.
2 oddities with this one. Not seen a printed one before, or the green backing.

Wild guess, cadet unit? What does Mr Anodised Bob think?

Don’t forget, it’s your turn to buy the Bratwurst at Detling.

I've seen something similar worn or on a flight suit but not on a blanking plate.

Do Sea Cadets even wear MTP?

Funnily enough I drove past our contingent of Sea Cadets yesterday, they had a mix of RN blue uniform and MTP.
