    The Union Flag is upside down.

    As an insult perhaps, or more likely they just got it just wrong.

    Read that is was worn by the delegates at Munich conference in 1938.

    We were in distress, hence it's upside down.

    It's a FAKE ...... In proper German you'd say "Britishe" on the first place. Wessex also gave you a hint with the flag up side down. It's not worth a dime. These are flooding the market and can be found eveywhere on the net. Many other forums have already warned their member snot to buy these.

    So is there a real badge that this one was duped off?
