What Machine Gun Corps Badge Do I Need?
Hi All,
I have a relative who was a Cpl Instructor in the Tank Corps during WW1. I've managed to get his record and it shows he started in the RFA(T) before being transferred into the Machine Gun Corps on the 11th Aug 1917. In Jan 1918 he was made a Tank Instructor before being commissioned into the Tank Corps. So with all that in mind can anyone show me what Machine Gun Corps cap badge I should be looking for please? Thanks a lot, Michael |

Thanks a lot Toby, I'll have a look at the website and start keeping my eyes open for the badge.

Thanks very much for the reply Hoot, I'll have another look at the dates on his record, I've probably got them muddled up.
Can anyone tell me if there are any give away signs for spotting a fake MGC badge? I have searched and can't find anything obvious on the forum. Thanks a lot, Michael |

I've checked his service record and it definitely has the date as 11 Aug 1917. I'll attach a couple of clips of the record, maybe I'm missing something that will make more sense to someone else.
