[PFF Museum]

Good afternoon Gents,

After a night hosting in the HC, I had a look at the fixings of the PFF badge attached to most of the uniforms I have on display, I looked at 30 in all, as I ran out of time. Didn't get chance to look at those hung away. This is to show the differences that were issued/borrowed/acquired etc etc! I've also had a chat with a few of my veteran friends and they are 100% sure they were issued with the stud/post type. However as this is just a snapshot it's not an answer for all.

18 have Stud / post type fitting as seen on 1752 and 1730.
7 have blade / tang type fittings as seen in pics 1712, 1763 and 1774(BD).
2 have the fixing as seen on 1767.
3 have utilitarian pins, however, I do know these were post war as told to me by the veterans that wore them, after fitting of new uniforms and didn't want to puncture the fabric of the pocket.

That you for your interesting comments and look forward to more conversations in the future.

Cheers for now Johnny
