It features in threads on the forum, eg:

Billy,

The Bloomsbury Rifles badge is pre 1908, what are the fixings, loops I suspect and probably a F/S badge.

The Jersey badge with a slider is I think a cap badge with the cross broken or removed.

The last badge with the missing crown is a generic Militia Glengarry.

Only an opinion on these badges.

Rob

Thanks for the posts I see what you mean Rob remians of Cross top left of Crown, it has been neatly done so on purpose? Has any others of these been discussed? Cheers billy

Hi Billy, do you have a picture of the reverse side, of the Jersey badge?

Cheers,
