1RDM - what is it?
Gents, just to confirm, is this is load of rubbish?
Is it a fantasy piece or a copy of an original? Thanks all Bess |

Confirmed as suspected.
Often seen on sites and advertised as Royal Devon Militia or Royal Devon Military, but in all probability it is a fantasy piece. I've just had a quick search and there are 6 on offer at the moment varying in price from £19.99 to £39.99 a piece. Regards. Brian |

That is the same information I found: 1st Royal Devon Militia (There were four regiments of Devon Miltia). The strange thing is that, as far as I know, the Devon militia never were "Royal".
See: Devon Miltia

Thanks guys. I'm sure I picked it up when I was a boy - late 70's. No idea where it came from. Always suspected it.
Thank you gentlemen. Bess |
