May be a bit of a red herring - you probably already know more than me about it Peter - but the TA Signals (and Cadets) based in Abbots Park Chester - were based in the old Yeo Depot there. When we were 11 year old cadets my twin and I were given a tour of the then closed Cheshire Yeomanry museum there. The silver was eyewatering. We went to the R Marine Cadets as soon as old enough down at Crane Wharf (12 or 13 from memory, you had to be a year older than Army Cadet entry). Great cadet band at Abbots Park, but not our thing. ATC were there as well.
I wonder if this provides some Yeo / Signals link - although badges a mystery. Probably all irrelevant, but you stimulated memories ...
