The correct badge for the 25th Battalion as worn in this theatre is illustrated in the attached scan of Lt William Dartnell, who won the Victoria Cross whilst serving with this battalion during East African campaign, and as displayed in the earlier post by “natal01”.
Also, attached a Link to Darnell’s V.C.
