This particular badge was authorised on 12.04.1916 as Pattern 9287/1916. This is the BM badge. I'm afraid that can't find when this badge was made obsolete.

The second pattern Pattern 556A/1916 was in all GM

(I'm sorry that I have not got to grips with yeomanry yet!)
The badge before the BM one was the BM PoW feathers with the WM Fishguard scroll, there are many photos of this being worn.
I didn't know the BM badge was 1916, that's interesting information.
Thank you

Chris
