Those are the smaller scrolless badge. the w/m ones are almost twice the size. The offrs have Bronze ones whilst the cadets have polished brass I think.

Can anyone confirm which badge the OTC wore?
I suspect the brass one is the OTC one as the OTC button is the same design without the Gods Gift scroll?

Bancroft's School
The CCF does not seem to have ever been an OTC. The school now wears RANGLIAN badges. As far as I can ascertain the badge shown is CCF rather than OTC.
