Hello again all...
Bought these unissued patches in a group of badges and can't find any info in any of my ref. books.
Anyone have an idea?

An indication of size would be very helpful. Mike

They relate to a CCF unit I think, if anyone has a copy of "Rawlings" to hand i'm sure they'll confirm

ACF seems likely now I come to think of it.a pity they're not a rarity then...

They are not in my copy of Rawlings.

Hi.
They were in fact worn by Sutton Valence School CCF on battledress under the 'Sutton Valence School' cloth shoulder title. Somewhere i have a photocopy of a photograph showing it being worn. Sadly not to hand. You'll have to take my word for it!
Kind regards, Andrew.

Need to make a note of that one.if you ever manage to dig that photo out, I'd be grateful.

Hi.
Found that photocopied photo. Not exactly good quality but i think you'll be able to make them out!
Kind regards, Andrew.
