Default CMP Shoulder Title

Hi All,

I've just got this CMP shoulder title and I was wondering if anyone has come across one like it before?

I'm assuming it's a theatre made or cast version but was just looking for a little more information.

Thanks,

Michael

Michael here is a similar title, this arrived with a brass Gurkha Military Police cap badge which also looks theatre made.
So possibly from Nepal???

Could it be Cape Mounted Police? Try posting in the South African section. My reference books are packed away at the moment so I can't look it up.
Cheers,
Alex

According to the Redcap Insignia and collectables book there were three different Corps of Military Police shoulder titles, yours is not one of them.

Rgds, Thomas.
