RAF sweetheart badge or Nurse's badge?
Hi Air Force guys/gals,
Here is a small brooch with safety pin attachment which has me puzzled. Metal badge is set in perspex. Is it a sweetheart brooch or was it worn by nursing staff? Thanks, Tinto |

looks like a standard RAF Medical Services Collar which has been turned into a brooch! Collar would have been lugged N/S. Andy |

Hi Andy,
Thanks, I thought that would be the case. There are vestiges of lugs N/S. I do know that New Zealand nurses in WW2 wore a NZ "Onward" brooched badge in ivory to avoid soiling their uniform. Cheers, Tinto |
