I inherited a number of badges and insignia from my 'Oupa'. He was evidently interred as a boy in one of the British concentration camps. He collected these items. Could anyone help identify them?

Welcome to the forum. Badge No.1 in the second row appears to be a variation on that of the Lovat's Scouts. Badge no.1 on the third row is that of Lovat's Scouts. The title, bottom row, centre is that of the 5th Northumberland Fusiliers. The badge bearing the motto :"hold fast" appears to be that of the Clan McLeod. Badges are not my strong suit - possibly not a military badge.
