Brent ,its certainly not my intention to devalue any of these publications,rather i am simply just researching my field of collecting,which happens to be New Zealand militaria.
I have been told that David Corbett based his book and badge collection around that of of a world renown British badge collector,who happened to be a badge authority at the time.Perhaps this is where the mistakes come from.
I have had the Corbetts book since 1983,and its always been the badge bible to me.Lets hope someone in the future rewrites Corbetts script with ammendments,so that mistakes like this one do not get perpetuated ,and perpetuated so many times that they become fact,even though they are not.
