17th Liverpool North Russia question
 
Did the 17th Liverpool continue to wear the Liverpool Pals cap badge when the battalion was reconstituted for service in North Russia, 1918-19?

I am pretty sure the answer is yes.

P.B.

The last version (of three) of the 'Liverpool Pals' OR cap badge was introduced in May 1917 as Pattern 9483/1917 with - for the first time - a slider.
It was finally made obsolete in August 1921 (TNA WO359/16,177).

Thanks, gentlemen. This last would certainly suggest that they did wear a version of it.
