Arrow Two Inniskilling Fusiliers Badges
Good day folks

Two badges firstly a big brass pouch badge and secondly a smaller silvered badge. What is it for. Looks too big to be a collar badge. 2.5 inches wide and 1.5 inches tall. So what is it?

Many thanks

James

I seen the second badge described as a Pipers cap badge.
Cheers Tony.

The first badge with the screw posts is I believe a bandsman’s shoulder belt pouch badge (music case). These were initially brass but were I think made in white metal towards the end of the regiment’s existence.
