I thought I post these pictures for discussion, having read Clive L's article on The Battle of the Garter.

The first picture is from the on-line CF supply catalogue showing the official badge of the 48th, including the typical slider. The small copper wire at 10 o'clock is the seal, as in sealed pattern.
This picture I took the other night, different badge and a terrible TOS.
It appears the war isn't over.
