Royal Pioneer Corps - Authorised 22nd Dec 1954
Royal Fusiliers - 30th Sept 1955
Royal Signals - 30th Sept 1955
Intelligence Corps - 30th Sept 1955
15th/19th Hussars - 31st Jan 1956
Border Rgt - 31st Dec 1956
Loyal Regt - 31st Dec 1956
Ryal Hampshire Regt - 31st Dec 1956
South Staffordshire Regt - 31st Dec 1956
Royal Devon Yeomanry - 31st Dec 1956
It is unknown though when these were actually manufactured and issued.
Note that the RASC in both A/A and GM was authorised on 30th November 1953 and sealed on 5th Feb 1953 is the first A/A badge known in St Edward Crown.
There are also a few authorised via List of Changes in 1957 - if required I can dig these out too.
Regards
Chris
