Special Forces Badges

and Wings

 

Updated 1 October 2010

 

This section only covers the badges and wings of elite units. All other elite unit items, such as belts, uniforms, kit, books, etc, can be found in each of those sections in the menu.

 

Diver, Submariner and Marine badges can be found in the Navy Badges section. Koevoet and Police Task Force and badges and wings can be found in the Police and Prisons section. 32 Battalion badges can be found under Army Badges Africa.

 

While I do not actively purchase and re-sell fakes/restrikes/copies, I sometimes get some when buying in a collection. I have listed them on this page and have identified them in red as being a FAKE.

 

The reference numbers after the item descriptions refer to the Reference Books on the home page of the website.
