Hi Priam
Welcome to this site,i hope that with a bit of time and luck you will get the answer you are looking for!
I am not at all familiar with this one,and as it isnt too clear on that Red Cross,could that possibly be the Starof David on there?
If so then this may of course have some Jewish background?
Just guessing mind you!
I am sure someone will recognise it!
Cheers

And yet another challenge for this motley Crew!
Come on Guys how about it!

The below is taken from part of the introduction to Tarot, I am certain this will not prove to be wiccen or mysterious, nor Masonic or old worlde: But, not having a clue in reality of the badge, look at all options, The pentagram has magical association’s, and many people who practice Neopagan faiths wear jewelry incorporating the symbol. Christians once more commonly used the pentagram to represent the five wounds of Jesus. The pentagram has associations with Freemasonary and is also utilized by a number of other belief systems.

Sky-Illusion- Roof of the world

Airplane- Ascension or detachment

Ship- Material treasure- continuance of life, sanctuary- that which is beyond our control

Sea- Emotional qualities- all potentials

Red Cross- Balance of forces

Star of David- Symbol of Spirit and symbol of the world

Anchor- Salvation- Forerunner of the cross in Christianity

Pos as said has nothing to do with the badge, but look at all possibilities, thus far this has come up most. Certain all will be found quite normal and nothing to do with the occult etc?
