If I'm not mistaken (and MH331 will correct me if I am !) - "A" Company of the 1st Battalion The Worcestershire & Sherwood Foresters Regiment always carried the title of " A (Grenadier) Company", when 1 WFR became 2 nd Battalion The Mercian Regiment in 2006/2007 I can only assume that the tradition was retained .
Soldiers of A Company wear as a helmet or hat flash an embroidered Royal Engineers Sgt's "Bursting Bomb" arm badge on a diamond shaped patch of Lincoln Green felt. These badges are locally made (and I'm pretty sure, unofficial)
