Default Hartfordshire Regiment
Hi Guys,
Can anyone help me out here. I need a Hartfordshire Regiment badge as worn by an OR in the closing stages of WW2 to accompany a medal. What am I looking for and what are the (bad) things to look out for?

Eddie

My Grandfather had one like this at the end WW2 http://www.britishbadgeforum.com/for...ictureid=98002

He served from the mid 1930's through the war and then to Palestine after.

Although there are many variants of this badge, I would go with this one.

All the best,

Andy

His original (although I am sure he probably had a few) that he had fixed to an ashtray. I would guess this was one of the last he owned. He was demobbed after Palestine.

Thanks Guys - sorry about the misplaced A! The chap I am interested in joined in July 1945 and went on to Palestine.
