Hi Doddsy, The Queens Own Buffs did have a cap badge, It was the same as The Royal West Kents, cap badge except the wording on the scoll was change to read Queens Own Buffs, I know this is correct as i still have mine complete with the collar dogs,They also had the Home Counties badge for a while untill the other was made and i still have that one as well. The Home Counties badge is very easy to find but the Queens Own Buffs cap badge is very rare, as for the shoulder badge that is also a yes again hard to find, I did see a pair for sale in a military shop in Canterbury behind Kings Collage, Happy Days.
