As you probably know, sniper badges usually use rifles in the badge and the 'Survey' badges look a little 'grander' (i.e. surrounded by a wreath etc) than the one shown in the photo. Spotter, Stretcher....... On a light note it could even be the regiments 'Santa'.....

Thanks, David. I thought perhaps this might have been an early, less sophisticated incarnation.

Merry Christmas, mate.

Could it be Stretcher Bearer, with a faded B?

Nice picture peter
how about "S" for " scout "
regards julian

All valid and useful suggestions, chaps. Many thanks indeed.

Peter.

I would go with BWEF ... Stretcher Bearer ... based on the position of the S.
