Default Norfolk Yeomanry Small GVI

What are the thoughts on if the Norfolk Yeomanry wore this smaller badge
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/385308629...mis&media=COPY

It’s generally thought not amongst the Norfolk collectors I know. To be honest I think the ERII badges cause enough confusion.

Would welcome any thoughts on it.

It's the same size as worn by the Military Provost etc. Not the Yeomanry.

This is the 65th AT Regt (Norfolk Yeomanry) in berets at the end of WW2/ just post war.

Thanks Alan I’d agree I’ve as yet to see a picture confirming the smaller size badge and my feeling is that it wasn’t worn just the large size only.

It would be nice to find a picture with post war BD with ribbons and tie which would date it to the 1947-early 50's period to determine it but I have yet to find one.
