Sounds good to me - definition updated:

A metallic item of head dress used by various organisational units of the British Army composed of anodised aluminium.

This helps shorten the definition too which is a bonus.

I don't know how many units were issued these badges but hope to find out when the data collection phase is completed - if it ever can be completed that is.

This is the reason I have used the word 'various' in the definition and not 'all' or a specific list (which would be far too long) of units.

Regards

Chris
