Hello Simon
Hello Marc

I'm sorry the patch is absolutely not a Free French...
It's a patriotic civilian patch made for the Liberation of France, there are many many of thems
like this:


French Forces in Italy was called CEFI, Corps Expéditionnaire Français en Italie
here is the patch



cordially
Didier

I just can't figure out a translation for this one, but it's from Denmark and a unit in the Sjaellandske (Zealand) Artillery Rgt

Erik, Thank you very much for both the above identifications. The Norwegian one came to me from Afghanistan.
