Thank you again Raider30 for your help.

Do you know if other Legion units allow sous-officiers attend to other foreign military courses, exept para course which has been already discussed in other section of this forum .

Best Regards, Harri.

Hi Harri
Here you have a better picture.

Best regards.

Bonjour Raider30 and thank you very much .
The best possible picture.

Cordialement, Harri

Hi Harry
Here you can see 2 different badges of the LANCERO stage in COLOMBIA (3 months)
1) metal badge
2) tissu badge for combat jacket (the NCO put it for me on his arm only for the photo). Sorry the picture is not very good.

If I found other badges of south american special stages (jungle, special forces...), I contact you one more time.
Best regards.

Hi Raider30 again,

thanks for the pictures. I am always interested in seeing more South American Special Forces (or any other unit) if worn by members of the French Army and especially soldiers of 3e REI or any other Legion unit.

Cordialement, Harri.

Bonjour a tous ,
I noticed in the KB magazine 708, page 12, that there seems to be a new version of the Brasilian Jungle School brevet worn on right side a chest instead of sleeve . Seems to be embroidered (or bevo) white on green oval backround. Does anyone have a proper photo to show us the latest design?

Cordialement, Harri.

Bonjour ,
enclosed the photo mentioned in my previous message. Both men seem to have the same brevet, or do they???
Better photo or scan requested of this new version of the Jungle School brevet.



Cordialement, Harri.

Hi Harri

Le chef de bataillon on the photo was in MANAOS in 1997. His brevet is not a new one.
It is always the same metal badge. And the tissu badge is also te same.

You can wear the Manaos brevet with the oval background or not.

Best regards.

Merci Raider30 for valuable information.
I didn't know about the oval backround, so I thought it is completely new insignia.

Is it just any green piece of oval cloth or felt????
Is there some sort of an official version to be worn with the metal badge?
Are there official instruction about the size of the backround?
Do Brazilians wear it with or without the backround oval?

Cordialement, Harri.

Hi Harri,

I couldn't answer you completly today. I will try to know if there is other color background. I think it is only a single piece of cloth.
In France, I think also that there is no rules about the wearing of this background.

Best regards

Hi Raider30 again,
and thanks for answering so patiently to my silly questions.
All possible information you have or get about the subject is most wellcome.

Best Regards, Harri.

Hi Harri

I found an other type of LANCERO badge.
With the 2 others pictures, you have now the 3 different Lancero badges

Best regards

Thanks to Raider30 for most valuable information and a good photo. Completely new insignia for me.
Any idea where to get some of these South-American, Legion worn insignias seen in this chapter of the Forum.
I already tried in the "Wanted" section without luck?

Cordialement, Harri

Hi Harry

Each officer and NCO came back of their stage with just the badges they need.
So it is difficult to ask them to sell their own badges.

Only someone of the 3 REI can help you.

Best regards.

Merci Raider30 although the answer was just what I was afraid of.
But no problem, I still survive and keep on hunting.

Cordialement, Harri.
