Hi Roy.......
Your badge in the upper right hand corner..... Here is the official badge worn as a cap badge by the DUKE OF CAMBRIDGE'S OWN 13th IMPERIAL YOMANRY...... I have only ever seen 2 of these, one I have, and one that sold on ebay in May 2009...... Mike

Hi Mike,
Many thanks for sharing that - what a beauty. The badge I have (top left as you look at it) is actually The 13th (Shropshire) Company, 5th Battalion Imperial Yeomanry. Cheerio, Roy
