Hi Chuck - the badges are:
top two rows in the oval and the center badges as Gordon pointed out - these are "excellent soldier" badges of various grades.
Second row of the star with the crossed swords are the national military sports competitions. Two variants in these
The lower sets which look like they have a volley ball are the local military sporting events.
These cased sets seem to have been gifts for visiting dignitaries. There are also sets that contain the proficiency badges (pilot, driver, etc...)
Still a very nice item!
:thumbsup
