[QUOTE="mrslynch, post: 615144, member: 21486"] As an update for those who may have had an interest in this post, I utilised the fantastic information on the National Archives of Australia website to locate the corresponding 'Returned from Active Service' book, which listed the name of the owner of this badge, a Mr Roy Harry Fischer, who served in WW2 for 5 years. I have contacted his family through the use of Facebook and made arrangements to be able to return the badge along to his family. My son, who is 7, was impressed with his find and is even more excited to be able to give a special piece of history back to Mr Fischer's family. [/QUOTE]
