Leigh,
There was a one piece collar badge that had the eagle on the grenade. The cap badge would have had the Maid of Erin Harp with POW feathers above on the grenade. Eddie |

Vertical rather than horizontal eagles?
I take it that K&K have mistakenly shown a collar rather than a cap badge? |

Leigh,
There were Vertical Grenades on one and two piece collars and Horizontal Grenades on two piece collars. Eddie |

Ta, so it looks like K&K were in error - I spent time looking for that eagle variation years ago. thinking that it would have preceded the harp version..........

I spent time looking for that eagle variation years ago too I wanted it to be a Victorian cap badge, but it was still a collar.

Posted simply because I re-aquainted myself with it a while ago - a plaque of 1st Bn RIF, Kenya,1955.
A locally made job by the look of it, the applied insignia and scroll being wood carvings. |
