Greetings Neil.
All of your ORs' VB badges are good, albeit somewhat offset to a certain extent, although that could be just as a result of the angle of the pictures.
I agree, the 4th is in all likelihood a badge that has had the slider removed and replaced by lugs.
The 3rd may also have been re-lugged in the distant past'
The Officers' badges, to 8th and 4th-7th battalions are both very nice examples and not items seen every day..........reasonably scarce items
The 8th badge, in my opinion, is a Regimentally altered early OSD, removing Egypt from the plinth with the cross hatching....Egypt is discernible from the rear.
All in all a splendid little collection.
Regards.
Brian
