The Thin Blue Line badge is being worn by a great number of serving Police Officers as it is in honour of Police Officers who have died in the line of duty, the badge shown has been produced by the International Police Association, and may also be worn. Quite sad that earlier in the year, one of Glasgow City's "elected councillors" wrote to the Chief Constable demanding that Police Officers remove these badges from their uniform as they did not conform with the Police Scotland Uniform Regulations !!!!, what a load of rubbish. Just so happened to be a couple of days before the hostage incident where the bloke killed the other in the hotel for immigrants, hope the Councillor wrote and supported the Officers who attended.
There are Friendship Tokens, which you can give to close friends as gifts, started off in the military I think as Regimental tokens, very nice and an unusual gift. I am sure there are now collectors of such tokens. This token and the badge were obviously produced for the 70th Anniversary of the IPA which has a massive membership Worldwide.
