Mystery 'CW' Armlet
It's incredible how my simple request for help in identifying an unknown armlet has turned into such an interesting topic!
As has been said, I don't think Miss Sinclair was ever actually in the WRNS. I think that was simply a case of well she's a coast watcher RN so she must be in the WRNS!
And I knew that scouts worked as coast watchers. But I had just assumed that they were scouts that lived near the stretch of coast that they patrolled.
It's interesting to read that Hertfordshire Sea Scouts were seconded for coast watching duties. Hertfordshire is my home county and it's a bloody long way from the sea!
