Default Good Conduct anomaly

I was reminded by the posting of a hyperlink at

http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...599#post409599

that Good Conduct badges still appear in the most up-to-date official publications.

I have no recent sightings ......... "recent" being, say 2000 or later.

Please if members know of [or better, have photos of] recent wearing I would be grateful to read of them.

Still maintained by the more traditional units including Household troops and Gurkhas

Thank you for the splendid photo.

Household troops do not wear the badges in Home Service Dress [scarlet for Foot Guards] .......... the demi-official line is that they mark the tunic and make it difficult to reissue. Similarly almost all "trade" badges have disappeared from the tunic.

Do the Guards use the Good Conduct badges on other orders of dress please?
