Shropshire Yeomanry title
Hi All
I have had this title for many years, not being a title collector I haven't really had much motivation to find out if it is genuine or not. I just saw that Geoff Newton had one on his site listed as WWII Italian made, is that correct? https://gnmilitaria.co.uk/shop.php?code=26290 Thanks, cheers, Alex |

Alex,
Litchfield confirms that such a shoulder title was worn in WW2 but from 1940 when they converted to RA uptil landing in N. Africa in 1943 they were in the UK and only served in Siciliy and Italy from 1943 - 1945. Therefore there is a good chance the title was worn prior to Italy. regards
