Nottinghamshire ACF arm badge help needed !
Can anyone give me any onfo on when this arm badge was worn by Nottinghamshire ACF. It was removed from a 1949 pattern battledress jacket that also had white on green Nottinghamshire and separate white on green ACF titles. Many thanks in advance

I am surprised that no one has responded to this query.Cadet insignia seems to be a rather neglected area.
At the recent Military Hearaldry Society meeting in Holmes Chapel I saw many pieces of cadet insignia I had not previously seen. The KSLI museum is one of the few Museums I have been to that had ( and hopefully still does ) a very good representation of affliated OTC/CCF/ACF insignia on display, Does anyone know any other museums where cadet insignia is on display ? P.B.

This badge is shown in Rawlings ("OTC CCF Cadet,ACF Badges and metal and cloth Titles" by Keith Rawlings) but no date is given.
As a guestimate I would say the insignia possibly worn in the mid 1950`s to mid 1960`s period ( hopefully this will make someone tell me I am completely wrong and give precise dates ) P.B.

Hello, there is a small amount in the Royal Anglian museum at Duxford where I worked for the late, and sadly missed, George Boss, for many a summer Saturday. Also the Queens Royal Surreys website has an excellent badge section and I hope to visit Clandon Park this summer.
