WW2 British Auxiliary Fire Service AFS Cloth Sleeve Patch Insignia

A WWII British Auxiliary Fire Service (AFS) cloth sleeve patch, worn by the civilian volunteers who backed up regular fire brigades through the Blitz’s bombing raids. Sewn onto AFS uniforms, the embroidered insignia marked its wearer’s affiliation to a service that risked its life on the home front. A modest, honest piece of Britain’s wartime civil defence history.
