Edwards 6th edition - when discussing 6th (volunteer) Battalion The Royal Anglian Regt - states this regarding D Company:-

'D' (Cambridgeshire) Company is formed by the Suffolk and Cambridgeshire Regiment. This Regiment consisted of two companies provided by the Suffolk and Norfolk Yeomanry and two by The Suffolk and Cambridgeshire Regiment and different collar badges were worn. The Yeomanry ('A' and 'D' companies) wearing those of the Suffolk and Norfolk Yeomanry and 'B' and 'C' companies the castle and key of Gibraltar in gold anodised.


Note - Edwards 6th edition print dated 1974.

Additionally Colin Churchill reiterates the anodised Suffolk Collar for B and C companies from 1961 - with no evidence they worn by regular Battalions. The anodised Suffolk collars being quoted as sealed in 1964.
