Default Badge Display Idea (Pt2!)

Hi all,

I posted this tread two years ago! http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...ad.php?t=49145

An idea for a badge display based on the soldiers buried in a military cemetery that I am interested in. A badge representing each regiment with men buried there. As things take time I have only started to re think this idea again, and want peoples opinions on what sort of badges should I acquire for the 19th century, helmet plates or glengarry badges? Or am I over thinking this

Any thoughts or comments welcome, this should be a nice project for the coming year!

Thanks,

Stephen

Glengarry badges would tend to be more distinctive than helmet plates in my opinion. I wish you well with your project.

Thanks Toby, I was thinking glengarry badges too.

Hi Tom, there are no more than off the top of my head. Some were there before and after 1881, so would need badges for each.

Thanks,

Stephen
