Over the years I have collected to a number of local regiments to where I have lived or worked but my main interest is in the Kings Liverpools and I have sold off items to other regiments to pay for Kings items I could not otherwise have afforded and my collection is now almost entirely to the Kings.

I do find that these days I get as much of a kick out of finding the answers to old queries as I do adding items to my collection.

P.B.

Having been a magpie for many years on all things militaria related I have settled in to WW2 RAF wings and crew member brevets. As well as the Commonwealth air forces from the same period.

That is not to say I do not stray from time to time, however my discipline is much better.

Reading and research brings much enjoyment as well as gardening "unrelated".

Hello,
I live near Vimy, Arras and Cambrai, not far from the Somme either. Near the old battlefields of WW1.
I collect long the cap badges of soldiers commonwealth: and now especially the Canadian and New Zealand badges.

I do not forget the second war also left traces in 1940.

Good afternoon.

Quaren'tro, a French collector.

In addition, I have an interest in Northamptonshire related badges, too; plus, as funds permit, a number of other cavalry and yeomanry regiments that just appeal to me, or that have a family connection.

Best,

I'm all about the Maltese Regiments and Colonial Malta Police Corps, from medals to badges, buttons, swagger sticks and sweethearts :rolleyes:

British badges to 1953. Especially Essex Rgt and Royal Artillery.
CEF especially 43rd
All things WW1
Was an avid collector of WW2 Axis militaria 30 years ago.
Basically anything that takes my fancy at the time.

I collect to the Guards. Favouring the Grenadier Guards, the Regiment i served in for nearly 12 years. Also serving in the TA.

Over the years I have collected a wide range of items. At the moment I am trying to build up a collection of British Army regular infantry officer's dress cap badges. This is a slow process so if I pick up a couple a year I'm happy. About 20 to go...
They'll make a nice display once I'm done.
Cheers,
Alex

Lancers
 

I collect all things Lancer I do stray now and again to Household cav and East Ridings. If I had a favorite then its The 21st Lancers. I served in both 17th/21st Lancers and Queens Royal Lancers.

That obscure Lancer Regt with very little history Mac ? :D

Who did you serve in the TA with Andy ?
