Hello,

I am happy to share with you the badge made in England during WW2 for the Free French "23e Flotille MTB" :
MTBs 90, 91, 92, 94, 96, 98, 239 & 277.


Best regards .. Herve

Welcome to the website. Thank you for posting the Free French badge.

This is much appreciated Herve. I volunteer at the Dartmouth Museum which has a number of documents and images of the 23rd. We have seen the graphic before, but we have not seen this colourway before!
The best account of the 23rd is published by Dartmouth History Research Group and it is free to download from their archives here: https://dartmouth-history.org.uk/dhrg-b ... kingswear/
The cover features the emblem of the 23rd in black and white, and it is great to see it in its true colours - thank you!

Thank you for the link for this book. I have sent it to a schoolteacher friend in France who has been working on wartime history. He will appreciate this.

Kind regards
