Hi Zob
Thanks for the response, looking at a better resolution photo it seems that some (but not all) of troops from all 3 Regiments in the Defence Platoon have similar triangular badges and a few of the Officers (from differing Regiments) do as well.
"I understand that certain Brigade Headquarters personnel of various Infantry Divisions wore a blue triangle sleeve badge, although I’m of the impression that this was worn horizontally"
I'm not sure what you mean by "worn horizontally" as from my perspective the triangle is "horizontal" with the long side as its base?
Either way, I tend to agree that it looks like a Brigade Headquarters designation.
Do you know if this is something that would have been in place during the war or introduced after the end as I am hoping to use it to help identify 9th Brigade HQ troops in photos from Operation Fabius and D-Day photos.
Many thanks.
