Yes, but it was my understanding that it should be worn on the left arm?

Ah, this is new to me. So am I to understand that all the members of the company would wear this badge?

No.
The crossed rifles surmounted by Kings Crown worn on the lower right arm was worn ONLY by the SERGEANT of the best shooting company in the Regiment. regards

Good afternoon, I realise that you posted these a while ago, but I have only recent found them and wondered if you had any other documents as G A Scarf was my Great Aunt's Father-in-Law and we have only just found out about him when I obtain some family history paperwork following my mother's death. I would be interested in acquiring anything that you had or wished to Share.

Love to see it still regards

Hi, i am not sure if this is still live, but I have recently become aware of George Scarff from some documents my mother left for me. I would like to know if you have any of the documents you mentioned in this post and would like to share, George was indirectly connected to our family as he was the father in law of my Great Aunt.
