Default IMPERIAL YEOMANRY HOSPITAL

Hello, I have just received a bi-metal badge to the IMPERIAL YEOMANRY HOSPITAL.
Can you tell me any history about this unit? Is it linked to a Hospital or even the RAMC ?
Regards engr9266
Jerry.

Alan, Thanks for the info. Yes I knew it was a repro (and quite cheap at that) but I am not collecting to this unit and it was just for reference so will end up in my spares box..
Cheers Jerry
