RMP & Provost cloth badges?
1 Attachment(s)
Hi folks
Messing about with my RMP stuff and have questions about these two items. The first is a 'orrible thing looking like a cloth cap badge, is this completely fictitious ? Secondly a straight cloth title 'Provost' is it British? Is it a Regimental Police item? Any help would be appreciated Regards Sean |

Hi Sapper
Re Provost badge my understanding is that this was worn by members of the WRAC attached to the CMP / RMP in days gone by and worn on the chest. I look forward to see what others have to say. Regards |
I've seen the curved one the was worn by Wrac Povost Companies on the shoulder but never seen a picture of one on the chest. Interesting.
Cheers Sean |

That's great Leigh, that's the first mention of the straight title I've ever seen.
Cheers Sean |

I have an example of the embroidered RMP cap badge. It is quite small and I suspect it might have been intended for a beret on a souvenir teddy bear. A similar item exists of a Royal Marine small embroidered beret badge once sold on a teddy bear by unit PRIs and the RM Museum shop. Tim |
Thanks for that Tim, in fact I have the RM teddy bear badge, now confined to the tat drawer, you may well be right about the RMP one too
Cheers Sean |
