Royal Arms badges
Going through my Royal Arms badges in an effort to make some semblance out of what I have, it was obvious that I would stumble somewhere, even with the help of reference books.
Case in point, my attachment below. Consists of a large cap size KC Royal Arms badge above 2 similar but smaller badges. The one on the left has a slider, so presumably a KC General Service beret badge? The one on the right, presumably a KC General Service collar badge (although it could just as well be something else)! My question is: K&K only mention a smaller GS badge as being QC, so what can the small KC be? Comments welcome, as always GTB |

Possibly a Warrant Officer Class I badge of rank.

A selection. Believe it or not, they are all different

The General Service badge was used by many units including Pioneers and WW1 VTC. There are photos on the forum of WW1 VTC wearing large and small versions so the small version's use was not confined to WW2 GS caps or berets.

Thanks all for your assistance. I'm afraid the small size KC badge with slider will be put on abeyance for now. Unless K&K is wrong or incomplete, apparently a smaller (beret?) sized badge only came with QC.
If this is so then I would think that a small KC cap badge with slider could very well be a brodrick badge. GTB |

A Royal Arms with a difference. Has anyone ever come across this type of badge before?
Thin gilded metal, no rear fixings but small hole at bottom. Collar badge size GTB |
