I found this in the bottom of an old WW2 Gas Mask bag I picked up at a flea market 😊

Thanks Mike.

So it is Army Cadet Force? What do the letters & numbers in the brackets mean?

Mike.

John Waring's Pamphlets, a series of superb pamphlets featuring b&w line drawings are a superb reference to British cloth badges. A sample page attached.

They are only available to members of the Military Heraldry Society, membership of which currently costs £17 for UK members.

Details at http://militaryheraldrysociety.com/
