February 2, 20197 yr #10 The OSONS winged dagger formation badge was for the DEU and represented the Special Service Force, a brigade sized formation which was based around the Canadian Airborne Regiment. Following the Somalia Affair, the Canadian Airborne regiment was disbanded in 1995 and the brigade was renamed 2 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group. The first badge is the CF/DEU SSF badge like you have, second one is the SSF badge worn on the camouflaged parachute smock.

April 24, 20197 yr #14 PROUD KRAUT - In Post #2, are thoe a bunch of older bullion patches along the top? Also, what is that huge shield that is quartered and has a radio tower, etc. on it? Cool design! Really like the two embroidered-on-green patches in the first post. The one that says "Gun" and the side view of the cannon. Super nice! Thanks for sharing!
