What may be the salient point is that he particularly mentions that it is for SENIOR NCO's on the side cap not NCO'S - there is a difference. This may be important - it certainly would be in some other regiments. Now I am only going on Mr Lambert notes and have no way of attaching provenance to his research, however his reputation should lend some credibility.
The whole reason for this post is to attempt to expand this single strand information as its the only mention I have ever had of this item as a recognised badge at all, let alone cap badge in its own right.
It may be a one off run, for a limited use but clearly it is not striking a cord with anyone. So he may well have been mistaken or misinformed - who knows.
Many thanks chaps.
