Can anyone confirm please if either of the outer two Wyverns were ever actually used or were fictions.

In the second picture what do members think if the originality of these three badges.

The right one in image 1 was sold through the association shop, I suspect a few would have been worn by members of the Brigade who preferred it to the "issued" one.

A member of our Cadet Training Team is currently wearing one.

Presumably after disposing of all their Wyvern Badges when the Brigade was disbanded about 3 years ago, they are now having to restock.

Now worn by Headquarters South West which commands the CTTs in the SW region. Their Wyvern has a green tongue and claws.
