Alan.... i think the takeaway here is that the Yeomanry Regiments wore their own insignia up until the General Allenby Order to form the 74th Yeo Div in early 1917.

* Many of the early photos show badgeless forage caps with the odd one with a cap badge in..... in might be down to preference..... mid day heat in full sun in Egypt might make for a very hot metal cap badge...... just a thought.
