Hello Mike,
That is very interesting. Thank you very much for sharing such fascinating detail. It is very helpful indeed. To think that men may have worn a small piece of the old pre-war full dress uniform as insignia really is absorbing. You have given me a lot to think about.
May I ask what your view is on the glazed cotton patches- do you think it possible that they were worn on the helmet covers? If I remember correctly, at least one of them is referred to as a helmet patch, albeit in that case it is for the 60th Division.
Many thanks again,
Chris
