Sherwood Rangers
I have a great deal of badges and stuff from the Sherwood Rangers pre WWI.
My Grandfather who was the Ranger was also one of the first 100 Royal Flying Corps. I've inherited a bunch of the stuff as weel, everything from logbooks to bittons. Nice trip through history looking at this stuff. |

Hello Gjd55
SRYC pillbox forage cap Green with 1.75" band of gold Irish-Wave lace, a gold welt on the crown seam, a gold "tambour" button and a figure on the crown (that follows the Hussar figure but not exactly the same). Officer pattern. Its a very nice and rare example of an Sgts pillbox.... the officers had the additional gold welt in the crown seam it appears. SRYC Officers Mess jacket and waistcoat below..
