Hello!
My name is Mikhail and I write to you from home isolation just outside of Chicago, IL, USA.
Even though my badge collection has officially started in 2004 when my friend brought me two "ONS IS" tank badges from South Africa, I really started collecting badges with image of iconic rhomboid British tanks from the Great War in September of 2019. While in London I visited Hearts & Daggers militaria shop and didn't walk out empty-handed.
I'm planning to use the forum to ask silly questions and see what other badges I will want to acquire.

Cheers!

Hello Michael, no such thing as a silly question.

If you don't have one already you will have to get The New Brunswick Regiment (Tank) cap badge.

I have one. I assume it's a collar badge and it has the tiniest image of the tank in my collection

Glad to hear you know about it. It is a favourite of mine. Didn't know the collars were the cap badge in miniature.
