This was a weekend car boot find to a 49th Recce Regiment Trooper it includes his 49th Recce Cap badge. Although there was no direct paperwork included was the 49th Roll of Honour highlighted as shown was Trooper Radcliffe wounded August 1944 his is the only name highlighted in the entire document.

Regards.

Mark

Cool 49th Div Recce Regiment
Lovely to see a nice original group of insignia which is attributed, the cap badge is especially nice to see with the rose neatly spliced in and not superimposed as are the many fakes.
