Default Irish war hospital supply depot.

Hi all , in westlake book on shoulder titles there’s a shoulder title ( 1825) to the above unit. I have an identical badge but with a G instead of an I.
Any ideas what the G is for.

The only suggestions I have found are from your 2011 post.

From "SCARLETFINDERS" website :
Quote:
there were more than 2,700 War Hospital Supply Depots and Work Parties throughout the United Kingdom and overseas
I would guess that only the larger ones would have their own badges etc , there are quite a few enamel badges for diferent town/groups and even fewer would have had metal shoulder titles produced.
