John Buckley Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Ok Folks, Where can I get a couple of the full color Gibraltar sleeve patches, the red one with the golden key? Also would personnel assigned to HQ Gibraltar wear a stable belt, if so what color and where would I get one. Keep in mind that I live in the Republic of Texas. Thanks for the help. Regards, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, John Wrt the sleeve patch, I have absolutely no idea. In my day, we deedn need no steenkeen badges, as they served to provide information to our enemies (the Commies). Wrt to a stable belt, it is tied to the cap badge you wear. Nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Buckley Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Re the patch question. The photos that I have seen of British soldiers stationed at Gibraltar show them wearing a sleeve patch, hence my question. Thanks, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Grundy Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Mr Alien, I see you are a film buff, 'The Treasure of the Sierra Madre' a late 1940's film to those who do not know. Strange how words stick in the mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbo Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 With apologies to the op (!)...it would seem that the famous quote is actually a misquote... http://www.thisdayinquotes.com/2010/01/we-don-need-no-stinking-badges-misquote.html As for the badge have you tried the british militaria sales page over on that horrible FB thing?
