Puggaree Flash for ID, Please.
Would somebody be able to ID this puggaree flash, please? The inscription on the reverse reads:
'Cpl Boyd, MG Coy'. With thanks, JT |

In his "Field Service Head Dress 1902 to the Present Day" Mike Chappell shows an llustration of this badge on a slouch hat as 1st Suffolk's, 1916.
