Pembroke Yeomanry/102 Field Regiment RA title

[cymro]

A recent acquisition (pair) and for a collector of Welsh cloth and shoulder titles and formation signs to the Italian campaign, a really nice find. First I have seen, so I think a rare beast. Further inquiries to the vendor revealed a 200 photograph album, ephemera, his other cloth and an unpublished history of the regiment in Italy, so the history is all together now.

Any comments on the title greatly welcomed - I believe it was worn over the 1st Army shield as part of the various AGRAs they served under.

Nice pick up. I've not seen one of those before.

This is the sort of thing collectors should be doing IMO, keeping things together that can be related to a certain person, so much has been lost in the past, just look at the badges in our collections and how can any be attributed to the person who wore them.
