Yes, they are of typical NSW manufacture from early in the war.

thanks keith
most interesting. they did seem to be as you say early NSW manufactured patches but ive never seen one with a leather rectangle. was that also common? so would i be correct in saying it is 1171 remounts aasc? what is the other triangle patch? cheers bc |

HQ 2 Aust Corps for the triangle. I've only ever seen the leather inset on AASC(P)(Remounts) patches, I doubt there were that many around.
Leather patches were not uncommon in the Middle East during the Great War. |

Thanks Keith
It seems I learn something every time I buy some of these. And most of that comes from you so greatly appreciated. It's such a basic patch but now one of my favourites (aasc remounts) Cheers BC |
