A typical sand cast badge. I think it’s probably for the Small Arms School at Saugor, in India. There were similar Small Arms Schools across the Empire, principally in the Dominions (India had two or three at different times, including Pachmarhi and another offshoot was at Ahmendnagar). They were run on lines and syllabi laid down by the parent school at Hythe, with a mixture (in India) of British and indigenous instructors. After independence the school moved to Mhow.
