Historical information

RAF sweetheart badges in WW2 were worn by the wives, girlfriends, and family members of Royal Air Force personnel, not by the servicemen themselves on their uniforms. These badges were sentimental keepsakes given to loved ones by service members as a token of affection and a connection to their loved ones serving in the air force.
