FCA Companies - 16th Infantry Battalion

These individual and historical Company badges were worn until 1978.  Like other Battalions, who, following an instruction from Army Headquarters (1977) that all units should wear the standard type badge, the 16th Battalion were one of the first to change. That instruction was changed years later but the damage was done and the "standard badges" stayed.
