Default WW1 Indian & WW2 London Scottish

Greetings, all. My first post here so please forgive me if I say anything I shouldn't!

I've been going through some of my parents' & grandparents' bits & bobs, and found various badges etc. I'm curious to know more about. Most of them were my Dad's - there's a picture of him in the Cawnpore Auxiliary Force in 1933, and Googling that led me here. Some of these I've tentatively identified via Google, others from notes left for me. I'll post photos if/when I can get a round tuit, but in the meantime I seem to have:-

WW2

Badge of the Chota Nagpur Regt. (Officer's cap badge?)
Indian Army Ordnance Corps badge, blue
Indian Army Ordnance Corps badge, black collar badge, 2 lug fittings
WW2 GHQ India Formation Sign x2
Burma Star Assocn. badge
14th Army cloth badges x2 (Burma)
Major's crown badge (?)
Punjab rifles badge
Indian (?) Army Ordnance Corps "sua tela tonanti"
Blue & silver badge with hand grasping lightning (?)

Vintage Silver London Hospital Nurses Badge
"Humani Nihil A Me Alienum Puto"

WW1

London Scottish badge - silver (+ 2 ribbons?)
London Scottish badge - blue
London Scottish brooch (in Charles H Spicer case)
Allied Victory medal "The Great War for Civikisation 1914-1919"

If any of these are of particular interest to anyone, please let me know & I'll try to post a piccie.

Regards
Ian
