Default WAAF cap badge

A recent purchase: a WAAF cap badge. I have been told by knowledgeable collectors on this forum that the Women Auxiliary Air Force was established 10th May 1940 along with the WAAS. I guess the cap badge must be quite scarcer than its WAAS counterpart. Full of enthusiasm I have bought on ebay what was advertised as a South African Women Auxiliary Air Force brass shoulder title, but in the event it has turned out to be a much more common WAAS title... I guess brass WAAF shoulder titles are not easy to come across!
