I found some great items for my collection this year, this Edwardian officers blue field service cap for the South Wales Borderers is probably the best, but I also picked up a late great war or early post war Wolseley sun helmet (named to private Dacon) which I had long wanted, and a few badges were objects of desire for some time, including this really rough Lambournes Glamorgan yeomanry badge (which they often are) as well as badges for the Montgomeryshire Imperial Yeomanry and most recently a Forage cap for the 11th Hussars named to Allenby.
If pushed to pick only one, I would say the SWB officers cap is the star for this year.
