I've checked Volume II (1939-67) of BoB, negative result (always a possibility that I've missed it, but I was thinking of it as a more recent badge).

Jerry,
It's not in my book as it's not British Army although it is clearly a product of the Calico Printers Association. John Waring's Identification Pamphlet No 3 Shoulder Patches of Commonwealth Military Forces Part 2 identifies it as for the Kenyan Army. As a Society Member you can buy a copy of the pamphlet. PM me if interested. Jon |

With regard to John Waring's pamphlet, would this be pre or post Kenyan independence ? Jerry engr9266
