For about 40 years I've been trying to track down proof of a sign worn by 26 Gurkha Inf Bde - and failed. I'm starting to believe that they didn't have one! My notes only state:

26 Gurkha Bde: Late 1946 redesignation of 6 Inf Bde, 2 Inf Div. From Hong Kong to Malaya 7 Apr 50 with 1 Cameronians, 2/6 GR, 2/10 GR. Comd as at Apr 52 was Brig (later Maj Gen) LHO Pugh
