Photos of Shoulder titles
Greetings everyone, I have a question for the forum. Could you please share your photo of foreign volunteer nationality titles in wear? e.g Mauritius, USSR, Barbados etc.... We've all seen the common ones, but what about the rare guys? Anyone with photos to share?
Cheers!

Mike A few I had and have sold, including a USSR, with a photo of the original owner. The British Honduras is one I saw somewhere else. I'll add photos of some of those I have left, excuse the common ones and repetitions!

Tropical Service Dress/Summer Dress. The Isle of Man title on the last card came with its matching shoulder eagle, although to my annoyance I got the title for a pittance but someone outbid me on the eagle at about £60.00!

I do quite like titles! I dont go for the common ones now (Canada, Australia etc) unless they are particularly different, but there is almost an endless list. Many unofficial types.
As you can see, there are a few odd badges such as War Correspondant slip ons, and BCOF badges. The 'Official Duties' badges were worn by scientists and the like who were put into uniform at the end of the war to allow them to travel round places, especially in Europe, without hassle. |
