Hi Destro,
Again a nice collection with a few scarce ones. The Hospital Officers appointment badge you rarely see and I believe dates from the early 70's.I've never seen the State Registered Nurse one before. "Arte et labore"translates as" By Skill and Labour" I was going to guess at which department but had second thoughts having read what I'd written. The Hull ones of course are Dedicated Search Team. As I have already explained in my PM to you I hope to get some photos posted soon. Thanks for posting. Regards Bantam Last edited by Bantam; 03-01-11 at 04:37 PM. Reason: spelling |

Hi Destro 1918,
It would be nice if there are others who would be prepared to share their knowledge of prison badges and maybe post some images. I wonder can anyone confirm also that the "Harp" badges shown in my posted photo was worn on the lapel collar of the uniform jacket ? Hwyl, Bantam |

Prison badges
I noticed in an earlier thread that you had a Kings crown Canadian penitentiary cap badge. I Have a Queen's crown one and the new version that is being used or came after the Queen's crown version. I am on holidays in Hawaii right now and will post pics on my return

Hello Geezer
I have just had a look at your Album (and very nice it is) can you tell me if either of the 2 cap badges are still worn, or when was the change over? I wont be drawn on to the subject of weather conditions !!! Going back to your Album, there must be a shortage of badges in the RCMP, as you appear to have most of them. When they get new recruits do they have to come and see you for a badge? Regards Destro PS If you can drag your self away from the beach. I do not have a Prison badge from that part of the world........... |

Prison badges
Destro and Bantam
Thanks for your comments. Yes I do have a few badges but that is what happens when you spend 33years In the RCMP. Destro, as far as the order of wearing of the prison cap badges, the A/A one was after the kings crown one that you have and then the metal one with the colour inlay came after the A/A one. I do not know if it is the one in use today, it was in use 10 years ago. I am on the island of Kauai and do not know of any prisons in the immediate area but I will take a look for you, no promises though as the beach,sun and surf is forever calling me. Lol Jack |

Destro and Bantam,
Sorry for being away from this site for so long. I've saved it now so as i can view and comment each night so expect a bit more input from me. I liked that cloth patch odds n sods photo you put on here Destro, I have a few of those and some more that are different as well but still in the same theme. I went to the galleries of justice again recently (a valentines gift, believe it or not, but she knows how much I'm into my history and collecting etc). I just got her a tripe supper and she was happy lol. Anyway, I will post some photos for you, and when i get time I'll set some of my collections out and show them to you.
