Default CHARTEHOUSE SCHOOL OTC?

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/CAP-BADGE-CHA...item1a0404b4fa

Does any one have any record of this being an OTC badge? I can't find it recorded.

More likely a glengarry badge for their rifle volunteer corps I'd say. They did have a helmet plate with that design.

I have the same badge and when I asked about it on either this or another forum it was suggested it was an archers badge. The badge is 45 x 38 mm.

Default Charterhouse OTC

I cannot confirm the cap badge, but Charterhouse did have an OTC unit, as evidenced by the title attached (it is an epaulette with the title embroidered directly onto it)
