No Keith, I'm not planning on getting into the Volunteer Battalions as well, my 12th of Foot glengarry badge arrived today, and the doubtful pedigree of this badge means that it will, I fear, have to remain in a small collection all of it's own. I was thinking that several of David Smiths, 12th of Foot shako plates, will keep it company, nicely! One or two more badges, and several buttons have yet to arrive, and when they do, I'll need to give it a miss, for a little while, whilst I replenish the coffers. When normal service is resumed, item one on the agenda will be a centrepiece for the collection, and I will attach a picture of a Suffolk helmetplate, that should fit the bill, a treat, if it's still available after Chrimbo.
