Marc,
Thanks. So my display is correct?
The large grenade badge is not a cap/hat badge.

Yes Nash college still there, I also attend this college in the late 80s .

The large ER badge is an officers pouch badge.

The large grenade is cap/hat badge.

The Canadian RE badge is there as (something like twin towns) where both units worked together.

Also some paperwork that maybe of interest to those who served with the unit.

Thanks for sharing! I’ve got a few for RMons and the other RE Militias in my albums. If you’re on Facebook - come join the Royal Engineers Badge Collectors Group. I’m sure the members there would like to see your items.
