Hbl
Further to your comments about the HBL badges, the first type were made in the local markets in Mukalla. David Birtles had both examples. I only have the newer one. I do have a nice pix of the title though. Never found out much about the HBL cloth underlays worn under the title. Signals was blue and white.
Since the book was published I have come across a few new titles and badges but mainly pix. However I do have a lot of new pictures of the troops for a pictorial suplement. Time is the problem.
Always keen to hear from people wishing to sell Aden badges and patches.
