Hello,
Badges identical to these were sold on Ebay Canada recently, maybe this is one of them. The seller sold a pair as collar badges, BUT, both faced left. I am more inclined to believe that they are Officers Beret badges. regards |
I know of the of the pair on ebay. This is not one of them. It does look identical to the pair. Thanks for stone info. Of all the pictures I have seen of Arty oficer's, they are all wearing the familiar exploded bombs as collars. My dad was in the RA and I have his wartime beret and it does have a smaller cap badge.

Perhaps badges for a pouch?

In WW1 some of the CFA war raised overseas battalions wore small sized cap badges as collars, so it's possible the tradition extended to WW2 and beyond, perhaps.
Regards |
Exact same size as post 2nd World War British beret badge.
Rgds, Thomas. |
