Hi Guys,

If we are still talking about the clutch fitting cap badge then I'm a bit surprised.

Blade fittings were probably by Danbury Mint of the USA but while clutch fittings are found on some collar badges and NZ and Australian cap badges made by Gaunt for them the British Army while enquiring about clutch fittings did reject them on cost and as such, as far as I know no cap badges were made for the British Army with clutch fittings.

I don't have the notes with me (currently at Singapore airport using up some hours) but this info is found in the main anodised file in the National Archives.

Regards

Chris
