Default Cavalry badges - 1950s

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know if there exists any reference book that covers Cavalry/RAC/HCAV/Yeomanry badges and insignia worn during the 1950s and 1960s?

Regards,

Mick

The series of books on Cavalry Dress Distinctions published by Langridge Military Publications are worth a look. Quite a few available on AbeBooks.co.uk

There is also Uniforms And Insignia of the Royal Armoured Corps Since 1946 which is profusely illustrated. One copy on ABE at the moment
