Late on parade
Hi Irv
Catching up with the forum after some computer problems and on reading your post I thought possibly that it was a RMLI cap badge but wondered if there was another possibility. Attached is a picture from John's book - could your picture feature the badge top left? Ray |

Hi Ray,
The trouble is I've looked at it so hard that it's made my eye's bleed There are a number that are obviously RMLI but the Marine at the back compared with the guy in front of him looks different. I just don't know myself, the consensus say RMLI. Paul W pointed out the entry in 'Personal Distinctions' showing the cap badge with the flaming bomb. Thanks for your help. Regards Irv |

Experimental
Irv
I have seen that badge in the flesh in someones collection - he believed it was an experimental badge and did not come into full use but John's book seems to suggest it was an issue badge. Ray |

Logic says they are all RMLI, you just wish it was a clearer photograph. I'd love to see a period picture with that cap badge in.

Or as I've just had to open the old computer I could post it my self....
the bottom three pictures are exceptionally rare, more so than the badges! John |
