Question Two titles

Can anyone ID the two titles?

WWGC I think is .? .? . ?. WAR GRAVES COMMISSION

BCS is probably a bus company

All help appreciated

Not sure about that.

The Commonwealth War Graves Commission was founded in 1917 and was originally the Imperial War Graves Commission until the name was changed in 1960.

Indeed cloth shoulder titles for Battle Dress exist in yellow on green as COMMONWEALTH WAR GRAVES COMMISSION and as IWGC

Default WWGC

OK chaps thanks for the replies, Wimbledon Womble Garbage Collector is a good possibility, how about Willy Wonker's Great Chocolate?

The jury is still out . . !

There might be a clue in the way BCS is constructed, the letters appear to be sweated onto two bars. Anybody have that style of titles? . As for the WWGC, not a clue, but...... the truth is out there! Regards, DJ.
