Default 4th Sharpshooters Officer's embroidered badge

A lucky find, I had never seen an embroidered version of this badge before. The other two are for size comparison. I was looking for the large Officer's Gaunt made version and stumbled on this one. Kevin

Angle Iron.

You seem to have stumbled on to my bi-metal CLY badge that I had to hand in when we amalgamated with the Kent Yeomanry.

I was an apprentice engineer in 1959 and filed my badge just about as smooth as it would go and still be readable and then buffed it up.

Polished it gleamed brilliantly bright compared to others.

Here for interest the 3CLY or 3/4 CLY Officers Field Service Side Cap.
