Default 7th DLI music pouch badge

Hi All,

I am now the proud owner of this beauty which was sold back in 2011 by Bosley's. I have seen a few of the brass ones, but have never seen one of these...2 piece construction. If anyone has any further information on the badge or a photo of 1 or the brass one on music case/pouch would really like to see it. Just thought I'd share..

Mark

Smashing badge Mark - never had a band badge in my hand but have seen a couple of the GM ones listed in auctions over the years.

Thanks for sharing, Dean
