I think the first two are sherwood rangers yeomanry rather than Ox & Bucks

1st Bucks Bn. cap badge, viewed from reverse, has a small flash of metal at right junction of cross and crown. This is a feature of a badge I bought on an FS cap, bought with greatcoat marked BUX 101 at a carboot in Slough- which until the 1970s boundary changes was in Buckinghamshire. No other militaria- so no reason to doubt the badge was in use with a Homeguard soldier in the 1940s. The Gaunt T4 ST is good- a high number of them have the Gaunt mark. Regards, Paul.

Was the Rangers badge not GM? Regards, Paul.

Yes. The badges shown are all Ox and Bucks WM to my eye too.
