Default 1 Green Howards

A set donated by the QM 1 Green Howards on 21 Oct 93. He noted that the King Olav V pattern Champion Company badge was replaced by the King Harald V pattern badge in September 1993. It also shows an interesting early example of a TRF - perpetuating a much smaller green/white felt flash worn in World War 2.
The strange rework of the 19 Bde flash was known within the Battalion as the "Jurassic Park sticker" - they heartily disliked it. It was allegedly a new Bde Comd's ego trip.
