Its sold to me as a dutch air mobile brigade patch. Bt on the internet that one seems different...
 
It looks like the patch on this page, from the 41st Mechanized Brigade.

The 41st brigade is an old unit. During WWIII it was the 41st Light Brigade and served as the recce unit for 1(NL) corps and NORTHAG. It operated as a screening force for the British push to Berlin and fought rear guard actions against Soviet partisans in Poland and on the Oder after the retreat. Later it was recalled to Bavaria to stop off the Italians. The unit didn’t reach Dutch soil in time to fight the French and remained in Germany as Battlegroup Griffin in the Ruhr area. It is now stationed in the large forested area near the IJssellake in Harderwijk. The soldiers are appreciated there, but regarded with some despair because they make a habit of seducing the Christian farmers and fishermen’s daughters on nights in the town.
