The INDIANA JONES OF EBAY does it again !!...........I have managed to purchase THREE militaria collections.....& TWO Police collections.....mainly patches, badges,insignia & headgear.
One of the main collection of patches & insignia, is a real treasure trove......I showed samples from it to one dealer who wanted to buy the entire collection...but I would rather let YOU the collectors have a chance than him obtain them solely for profit.
The origianal owner collected some older RARER patches...and also filled the gaps of 'difficult / impossible to find 'items with good reproduction patches. I am Not an expert...........so this collection of patches will be listed as low priced NO reserve........there are genuine and some good repros...I am not sure which is which....come on bag a bargain.............any q's please email me.

The Brigade of Gurkhas is the collective term for units of the current British Army that are composed of Nepalese soldiers. The brigade, which is 3,640 strong, draws its heritage from Gurkha units that originally served in the British Indian Army prior to Indian independence, and prior to that of the East India Company. The brigade includes infantry, engineer, signal, logistic and training and support units. They are famous for their ever-present kukris, a distinctive heavy knife with a curved blade, and for their reputation of being fierce fighters and brave soldiers. They take their name from the hill town of Gorkha from which the Nepalese kingdom had expanded. The ranks have always been dominated by four ethnic groups: the Gurungs and Magars from central Nepal; and the Rais andLimbus from the east, who live in hill villages of hill farmers.
