Three pocket badges worn by the Czech troops in exile made by H.W. Miller Ltd from Branston Street in Birmingham. Hard to make out sometimes, and even harder to photograph.

Hello Luc,
No and I've never seen a Palestine Police where it does either, they were quite well made little badges.

Thanks Wardog.

Clearly they made other badges besides the Artillery.

Bought in the UK at a general antiques shop. I don't know how scarce it is as a mark. Regards, Paul.
