Hi Harri.
I've got some news for you. An officer coming back from the 3 REI gave me some informations.

The back patch of the brasilian jungle school brevet is always green.
But the border can be gold (instructor) or black (monitor).

Most of the french officers and NCOS wear the brevet patch on the shoulder. And most of the others didn't use the back patch when they are wearing the metal brevet.

Best regards.

Hi Harri,
At the time I was in Guyana (86-88) only two officers who went to the jungle in Brazil stage 1 of the 3rd REI and 1 of the 9th and BIMA this year. I had the chance to review with an officer who was stationed in Martinique and who returned the "stage of cons guerillas" in Colombia he wore over his patent paratrooper, but little red badge on the photos that I still I can not tell the reason. This other information on these patents abroad wore French.
Regards Thierry

Merci again for thergi and Raider30 who still bother to deal with me with this most interesting subject. Most valuable information again. Thank you both.

And if anyone has the green backround with gold or black border, I would like to see a photo or scan.

Cordialement, Harri.

Hi Harry

Somthing new : you can find a scan of Manaos metal badge back patch.
The officer who let me scan his back patch, tell me that the only différence between a monitor or instructor badge is the colour of the metal badge (gold = instructor ; silver = monitor). The back patch is always the same.

Best regards

Merci again Raider30
for most valuable information and the photo. Now I know exactly what to hunt as I need one for my collection.

Cordialement, Harri.
