Default Norway UN badges

Good day. Hope this helps or narrows your search. I don't think your badge in the first post is a UN national identifier. Here are two examples from my spares tray that I believe are used by Norge forces on UN duty.

Norge in white on khaki is army pattern, Norway in white on blue-grey was worn by airforce personnel. See wartime examples attached.

Thanks Luc for showing these Norway Patches.
I have never seen the Norway shoulder Titles, For the Army
Is anyone able to show what they look like, as I have been looking for one for years.
Thanks in anticipation
