Smile Badge backing
The badge backing is for the Royal Engineers not sure what the badge is, a close up and what type of fittings it has may help ID it.

Looks like a WW2 GS Cap with Indian Sappers & Miners officers cap badge on a RE backing patch.

I agree with Simon, Queen Victoria's Own Sappers and Miners officer's bronze badge on an RE backing as they were Engineers.

Nice unusual headdress.
