I see nothing that would indicate to me this badge is dodgy. I am not up on the current reproductions as I have had my example now for quite some time. As my example is in Ottawa and I am in Montreal, checking it will not work.

I am confindent this badge is an original.

Hello Woznotwos,

Excellent pictures you provided, they show great detail. As already mentioned, this badge is a nice original item. Do you collect 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion items?....

Cheers!
