Default WAAC questions....

Hello all.I have some questions about the WAAC badge,and about one that I bought a few weeks ago,just to make sure I bought something good.
First;Did all WAAC badges were maker marked ? (mine is not)
Second; Did the WAAC badge had blades or lugs ? (mine as blades soldered with yellow brass)
Third; Did all WAAC badges had a number plate ? (Mine has not)


Thanks for your comments
Cheers
Jo

In that case I'll get right on it.

Jo might I suggest a photo as this would be really useful in identifying if your badge is correct or not.
