Default Interesting Mine Clearance Service

Thought this may be of interest to some.

Normally I’m cynical of most badges inscribed with a name but I do like this recent addition.

Thanks Simon. Originally I thought how 1915 was separate it may be the year but it appears to be the man’s service number, 201915.

In case it’s not clear the inscription reads:
F. G. CRANE
P.O. 1st CLASS
201915
