 Imported Military Blazer badge of excellent quality. Precise details in the manufacture. See image for details. POST FREE.

120 Squadron was formed in January 1918, as a day bomber squadron equipped with De Havilland DH.9. The First World War, ended before it became operational, so 120 Squadron spent 1918 and 1919 flying communication and mail flights in Western Europe until it was disbanded late in 1919.

Reformed in Northern Ireland in 1941 the unit was equipped with the Liberator, flying successfully against the U-Boat threat in the North Atlantic until disbandment in 1945.

It reformed in 1946, by renumbering 160 Squadron at RAF Leuchars and equipped with Avro Lancasters. A detachment moved to Palestine in November 1947 where it carried out searches for illegal immigrant ships until February 1948, when it returned to Britain.

The squadron re-equipped with Avro Shackletons in 1951, and continued operating them in the maritime patrol role until re-equipping with Hawker-Siddeley Nimrods in 1971, gaining the updated Nimrod MR2 in 1981. It flew operationally in the Falklands War in 1982 and the Gulf War in 1991.
