They are all French indeed:
- Forces Françaises en Allemagne: French Forces in Germany (Worn after 1945 until the reunification) - 70 RAMF: Régiment d'Artillerie Mobile de Forteresse (a 1940 Artillery Regiment). The acronym means more or less "Mobile Position Artillery Regiment": that gives an idea of the complexity of the Maginot Line system .... - Second Moroccan Infantry Division. Part of the French Army, an unit made of soldiers from Morocco. It fought in the second part of WW II but the badge was also worn after. - 310 e Infantry regiment. An 1940 unit derived from the 110 e Infantry regiment. "Tic-Tac" is the noise made by a watch (and by a machine gun ....). "Toujours d'attaque" is a colloquial way of saying "always ready" If your Artillery and Infantry Regiment are authentic, they are rather uncommon.

Thank you for your help (on this post and my other one).
I don't know if they are authentic or not. I bought them with a lot of other stuff. Do you know how I can found out if they are authentic or not? What I do know are the makers (their names are on the back  )2e Division d’Infanterie Marocaine: G.E. Mardini, 5 Rue Chapon Paris. 310e Infantry regiment: déposé fraissdemey, 19 R.Outemple Paris 70e RAMF: A. Chobillon, Paris Do you have or know a book with that information, 'cause I have some other unknown French badges.

Thanks Voltigeur for the website.
Now there is still one more badge that i can't identify. Do any of you know from which unit this one is?  Uploaded with ImageShack.us It's made by A. Chobillon, Palais-Roy(al) -can't see it very good- and according to that website it is from before the war 39-45.

Some details about the 110e/73 RI. In fact, it is the first badge worn by the 110 e RI. It was created in 1933. The 73 e RI had been disbanded in 1920, after the Great War and the 110 e RI kept his flag and perpetuated his traditions. My point: it is not an amalgated unit (the 73 e RI did not exist any more) like so many in the British Army -and in the French Army for that. When the 73 e RI was created again in 1939, the 110 e RI adopted a new regimental badge.
