South African Corps of Signals button badge
Dear All
Can anybody tell me if they have actually seen (For real) a South African Corps of Signals button badge for 6 Signal Regt, Yellow button with two crossed palm trees on it. I have a copy of the sealed pattern signed by all the relevant people which was kindly sent to me by Andrew Dinnes. He is the chap that has taken over Colin Owens site. I have 21 button badges on my little web site and I am of the opinion there is still the 6 Sig Regt to get. Please let me know if you know of any more! Unfortunately, all my contacts from Mike Lukich to James McKenzie are unable to assist me. I do want to know if it was actually issued as a badge. If it wasn't I can stop looking out for it. Hope someone can assist me. Kind regards Chris Walker |

south african corps of signals button badge
Dear andrew
thanks for the quick reply. I thought i might be able to stimulate a little further information from the forum for this request. Unfortunately so far nothing. Perhaps we and steve sergeant are correct. The badge may never have been issued. Time will tell. Cheers chris |

6 South African Signal Regt button badge
Dear Friends.
I thought I would resurrect this Thread with the addition of a copy of the original "Art Card" used by the Regiment when requesting this badge to be made. It is now some 4 years I think since I first asked for assistance in finding someone who has actually seen one of these Button Badges. At the time of writing this Thread the answer is still NO! I have been advised that the unit was fairly small not the size of a UK Signal Regiment and hence only a few were ever made. Perhaps the Art Card may stimulate some of our South African members to add a comment or two. Kind regards Chris Walker www.signalsbadges.co.uk |

As far as i am aware the button badge may have been approved but was never actually produced and issued. A fair few Signals badges were handled in the same way..... I hope this helps ? Mark |
