Crownless KRRC
This badge came along with a few others a few weeks ago, at first I thought it was broken, but closer inspection shows that the crown has been very carefully removed.
Was it worn by an anti-monarchist? Thoughts appreciated . . ! Rob

There was a thread on these have similar to the KRRC, the 6th KRRC, and a Westminster Rifles KRRC.
If I remember rightly it was done 1st WW to prevent the Crown interferring with the Soft issue cap? Will see if I can locate the thread, but was something along those lines, all the best billy

It may have been on a Trophy belt at some point, sometime bits are cut off badges to make them fit better?
