Default 1 CMR Collar Badges

Hi all,

Can anyone post a photo of a PAIR of collar badges for the 1 CMR? I have searched high and low and have been unable to find any photos of an actual pair. Lots of singles.

Much appreciated and many thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Greg

Default 1CMR collars

Greg, I am assuming you are looking for FACING collars?

I could be wrong, but I don't believe they had facing collars, the buffalo faces right on both. (On the brass shoulder titles, the buffalo face left and right in a matched pair).

Collars for the 1CMR are fairly common. IF facing collars (a left in particular) exist they must be ext. rare as I have yet to see a left facing collar for the 1CMR.

Hi Bill,

That's what I was thinking. I have searched high and low for a facing pair to no avail. That leads me to believe that they are all facing the viewer's right.

If anyone has any different information I would love to hear it.

Thanks,
Greg

I have 1 CMR badges from a veteran.
The collar badges both face the same way as the cap badge.
