Cameron Highlanders officer Glengarry
Very pleased to have picked this superb example recently, and for a VERY good price.
The seller did not picture the badge, and I was again pleasantly surprised to find it a silver officer badge and the only one ever affixed to the Glen. Note the rosette, unique to the Camerons. I believe the Glen to be circa ww2 by the construction and materials. Named as well. CB

Well, good heavens! I never thought it could possibly be identified to the original owner. Thanks so much for that Simon! That makes it all the better.
