Yes, I've seen the Lord & Birtles book - you will note my two HBL badges are in there ( via the Military Historical Society). It is a very good refererence and the only one I know which lists the various Aden units and private armies. Unfortunately, illustrations of many of their badges are not available.
The HBL shoulder title is attached. I seem to recall that it was chromed, like the head-dress badge.
