What a hobby, cheers Dean
Well, its worth bearing in mind that KDG only arrived in France in 1915 and buggered off back to India in 1917. By the time they got anywhere near the front the vast majority would have been wearing the Star and Garter badge. I say vast majority as there seemed to be some delay in issuing the new badge to all the troops... So if your card is supposed to be representative of WWI I would say the S&G would be the one... but I'm anal about these things, so ignore me if you want lol!
