School of Music Sealed Pattern
Hi All,
Tim (Grey Green Acorn) has brought to my attention that the notation, on the following sealed pattern, is perhaps more interesting than I had given it credit for. What do the Royal Marine boffs think? ATB, Phil

What is written on the card. If it is the same then the 1994 writer is not to at fault.

Im wondering if the red cross on it, is signifying that they know its wrong. Hence they have got rid of it. Just a thought.

The red cross means it is for disposal for one reason or another.

Nice
Evening Phil
Although the card says Regiment the badge only has the correct RMSM initials. Pretty certain this didn't come into use so guess it was red crossed and abandoned at the approval stage. Don't have access to John's book right now but think this was around the time that the band moved from the lyred cap badge to the Corps' cap badge. This may have been considered and vetoed in favour of the general cap badge? Really nice and unusual piece for a RM collector all the same Ray
