Old TV series quiz

Who can guess what series this was taken?
I used to watch it when I was a boy, so it's old:

F Troop

Lol, F-Troop was my first impression as well, but the insignia is all wrong.

Looks like a "futuristic" space show. Not sure I've ever watched it. Don't think it is american.

Come to think of it, the lightning bolt could make it a later Space Patrol episode?

Edit: NVM, it is Rocky Jones, Space Ranger. Before even my time.

Funny, I don't remember Rocky Jones, but I do remember Commando Cody.

It's American and I think it was 'Space Patrol'. It ran in the years just before I was born.

I don't know. I just wrote a couple of glowing reviews at Amazon for the 1943 Batman and 1948 Superman serials. Tacky? Yes. Cheesy? Without a doubt. That said, there was a simple earnestness about them that just tickles me. So innocent, yet so willing to try to be serious with what little they had to work with. I love 'em.
