RAOC Officers & WO1's Bullion Beret & Sidecap Badges
Its been 20 years now since the formation of the RLC, and the requirment for RAOC Officers Beret Badges is still with us for Vetrons.
About 3 years ago I had a small batch of Dark Blue produced, and now supply them in Dark Blue, Airborne Maroon and Commando Green. Always classed as a private purchase the 'modern' example looks a bit more like the cap badge than those supplied by Military Tailors! One or two have been ordered for framing with medals as well. Left, Original Bullion Badge - Middle, Modern Example - Right, Cap badge for comparison. The odd original Bullion Badge turns up on e-bay! |

Is the background colour of the garter in your example the same dark blue as the backing? Shouldn't it be royal blue?
Rgds, Thomas. |

The square cannon balls in the original bullion badge would seem to indicate some fatal flaw in the procurement process in the 17th Century!

RAOC WO1 Bullion Beret Badge
I have seen your post re WO1 bullion beret badge and would ask if you have any for sale. If not, do you know of where I can purchase one or two. My friend would also like to replace his worn out badge.
Kind regards Robert Hood |
