SNLF insignia question

[Aedthir]

I saw this insignia recently.  Would the red insignia indicate medical or is this not a common practice?

 

Thanks!

I think it was painted post war, I've never seen one painted any color, but I could be wrong, can you show the whole helmet?

Agreed, post war or souvenir painted original badge.
