Default KOCalgR Officers' badge

David S., the story is not just an urban myth. The silver bits on the sample sent to the manufacturer were tarnished, and that is exactly how the badges came to the Regiment. The error occurred under the aegis of one of my successors as CO (I retired in 1982) and I do not believe the error was ever corrected.
