Default National Service badge to Identify please
Hi Gents,
Nice little badge made by Thomas Fattorini. Anybody got any ideas who it might be for?
Many Thanks in advance.
Colin

The wings on the badge suggests an association to aircraft builders. In 1939, J.V.Rushton are listed in gracesguide.co.uk as being suppliers to the aircraft industry.....JVR .......this might be a good possibility.
Cheers
James

Great research. Seems like the right answer.

Thomas Fattorini were the major manufacturers of such badges.

Their leaflet shows some others.
