I would add the K&K only mention the DH (ie post 1908) which is presumably the khaki dress badge and is noticeably absent about the DHIY who presumably were wearing the all brass version (or bi-metal depending on which page of Owen's book you are reading).

Alan,
Sorry I don't have any information on the Wilts Yeo as I research and collect Welsh units only. However, I do agree with your comment re. K&K and Bryn's book can be a little confusing to say the least e.g if you look at the badge on p.215 the text infers an Officer pattern and yet it has a slider.
An area which needs looking into I feel.
Regards,
Kevin
