I will post many badges (it’s around 10 packs!) that were gifted by Pak Ken Conboy. Instead of bothering him too much, perhaps you guys can help me dating the period when they were worn, and also identifying the unknown ones.
Lets start with Pack 1: Gurkhas and the Indian Army.

1. The 1st Gorkha Rifles (The Malaun Regiment), date?

2. The 9th Gorkha Rifles, date?

3. The 11th Gorkha Rifles, date?


4. HQ Special DG (Western Command) Border Security Force at Chandigarh

5. Indian Parachute Regiment badge

6. Indian PARA scroll

7. (December 6) Indian National Security Guard, is an elite special forces unit of India, established in 1984 under the National Securities Guard Act to combat terrorism and provide protection against specific threats to national security.

8. Commando + hand-embroidered winged Shatrujeet from Indian 50th Parachute Brigade.
