Default Blackburn OTC

Yorkie,

No ontry for this badge or unit amongst the 3200 entries in Keith Rawlings book on cadet insignia.

Was there a Public School in Blackburn that went by another names, and are the motto and badge the Arms of Blackburn?

Stephen.

Design and motto seems to be that of Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School, Blackburn.
