Am I missing something? I can only see one badge, the Scinde Horse one. A good example of that badge too, far better casting than most I've seen/owned!

Indeed, he forgot to add a link to his album. But when you go to the "All Albums" button above, you will see his pretty soon.

To shortcut, it is here: http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...p?albumid=1824

Nice album, but your Indian Parachute Regiment badge ("116" or "11 of 78") is a fake.

Rgds,

Some very nice badges there, Angle iron. I agree about the Para. badge. And I'm sure you know that all the higher numbered cavalry/armour badges are post Independence Indian, while the one with the star and crescent replacing the King's Crown - one of the service corps - is Pakistani Army.

All in all, a lovely lot! Congrats. Makes me regret selling mine off a couple years ago. Ah, the lure of ready cash!

Peter

Thank-you to you all for your interest, Yes I am aware of the context of each badge ie The Pakistan EME, However not all high numbered Cavalry Units are post independence,While most are post 47 Some appear on Gaylor's MHS poster for the pre independence period and are listed in the back of Sons of John Company for that period to my memory. I Will get round to a title for each in time but have been a bit busy this week. Thanks again all for showing interest I still have others to upload including Gurkha Badges and buttons etc, Best regards Kevin.
