Default W.A.F.F. (pre 1928)

Hi Gents,

I thought I would share this lovely complete matched set of cap & collars to the West African Frontier Force (WAFF) pre 1928 (prior to the allocation of 'Royal' for RWAFF).

A splendid gilt officers set and all by Dowler & Son's Birmingham.

Cheerio,

Roy

Very nice, the pre 1928 cap badge is quite a difficult fellow to find these days.

Regards,

Zob.

Thank you for that Zob,

Yes a rather scarce badge to find, so very pleased to now have a set of three of these and all to the same maker too. A good start to this weekend..

Cheerio,

Roy
