This page from Lt D.W. Gay's 'War Effort' shows a photo of New Zealanders watching Allied aircraft and a safe conduct issued by the 8th Army.
The yellow cross on a white shield was the 8th Army badge, first developed at the time of Operation Crusader.
Many thanks to Martin Hampton, the son in law of Lt. Gay, for sending us this material. These pages come from Gay's own private notebook which began with similar infomation to his flight log, but became more detailed, and also included a number of interesting items that had been pasted in.
