Help with K and K
 
I've just spent over an hour searching Vol1 and Vol2 K and K but can't find the cap badge for Royal Guernsey Light Infantry.
It must be in one of these volumes?
Can anyone help with the number?
Got segs on my eyes, is it me or are the indices in these books a nightmare?
Cheers Tony.

Hi Tony - there are three illustrations in Vol 1 - 286, 355, and 419 but these are helmet plate centres - I assume the cap badge you are referring to is the one illustrated in Gaylor plate 22 ? It's not shown but then K&K never was or pretended to be entirely comprehensive. Tim

Thanks chaps, Tim must be Gaylor's where I've seen it.
Cheers Tony.

No thats all I could find though I do have the cap badge.

You can find it in John Gaylors :-

(plate 22 row A.top of page) and on page 66 within the "Hampshire Regiment" the last paragraph is to the Channel Islands ( its one line of text) above this is a Paragraph devoted to the Royal Guernsey Light Infantry.

There is a Channel Islands military website somewhere or other (possibly by unit / island titles) - with details of their badges. But, of course I can't remember where it is !
