I think that's exactly the point we are making. Where an entire regt was converted to Infantry Bns they often seem to have worn both Yeo and Inf badges alongside each other - no doubt due to the officers still being in the Bn and this seems to have been widely tolerated.

The conversion to cyclists does not seem to have seen a change in badges for the 2/1 and 3/1 Yeo units.

MGC conversion seems to have gone to rebadging.

Where Yeo subunits were reroled/amalgamated/sent a bulk reinforcements then they seem to have been converted to the Infantry cap badge. Although as the AY pic shows earlier they may well have hung on to badge sw here they could get away with it.
