Default Beja Battle badge

Absolutely unbelievable - I'm speechless, but have to point out that the six formation signs depicting the Sherwood Forest oak, are actually those of 46 (North Midland) Infantry Division (TA) which served in Algeria, Tunisia and Italy from late 1942 to VE Day and beyond. finally serving in Austria in 1945/46. I have never seen an example of the small 172 Fd Regt RA brooch before - an accurate representation of a 25 Pdr Gun and "UNITED WE STAND". It's probably as rare as the fabled Beja badge. Superb.
