Some Patches from my collection.

Hi Guys,Here's a few French patches, jacket bit's and bobs etc, from my collection, some are obvious, some I have no idea what so ever, if anyone can shed some light on the less common one's especially The Orange and Green and White epaulette bands, I would be very grateful indeed, having scoured the web with no luck, this is my last resort
Marine or Navy?

And finally the Mysterious Orange epaulette things, which are made of vinyl coated cloth.

French ISAF patch, of the type currently worn in Afghanistan.
