As yet I can find no evidence to back up Bosley's description as a school OTC badge. It may have been for the school cap as such methods of fixing are quite often found on school hats but not military ones.

The school certainly wore owl badges in their school caps.

This is an account of a Manchester Grammar School boy with a metal badge in his school cap. Cox's book is wide ranging and has a few errors in it.
