Badges relating to my Great Grandfather, framed, 3DG

1 Attachment(s)

Hello,
I posted a couple of months ago my Yorkshire Dragoons badges to do with my Great Grandfather, before he joined them as a PSI, he was in the 3rd Dragoon guards.
On yellow facing colour.
3DG three piece title, worn during the Boer War, Victorian cap badge, 3 lugs, collar Badges, 3DG S/NCO arm badge, brass buttons, 3DG title, Edwardian cap badge, on slider, different strike to the Victorian badge.
I'm really pleased with it.

Fab display.

My Grandfather was a Farrier in 3rd Dragoon Guards, just missed WW1, enlisted in The Essex Regiment 1918, war finished, re-enlisted a year or so later and went to India in 1920.

Really smart Chris, using the facing colour is an inspired touch. Look forward to the 3DG display.
