I would be keen to know further details about a cut down badge being worn by officers on the FSC. Do you have any dates for this and do any photographs survive?

The stipulation was to wear a collar badge on the cap in the late 1890s. I have seen photos and an actual cap, but not recently. I recall reading somewhere that sometimes cut down ORs cap badges were used for a time as they did not have the festooned chain tether. The shortened slider seems to chime with that usage.
