Default 5 London & RA Cadets

Excuse the liberty of adding to an old thread but it makes searching for information more easily subsequently.

Enquiry was made about RA Cadet badges, here is info about Watford Scouts RA Cadets:
01.06.11. AO 161: Recognition promulgated of unit. Subsequently Coy requested authority to wear their own cap badge ‘SX’ surmounted by a coronet. The significance of this is lost. WO turned down the application, suggesting they adopt the RA Gun with ‘Cadets’ replacing ‘Ubique’.

Additionally, there are many photos of Norfolk cadet Artillery wearing the large gun cap badge during the 1920's, sadly none are of clear enough definition to tell if they were cadet or RA versions.

Attached a picture of a BP stamped Cadet version.
