Camerons? badge
This one has me baffled. Akin to a Cameron Highlanders badge, but smaller (I'm guessing a collar badge). St. Andrew in centre, thistle spray to right, maple leaves to left. Scroll at bottom reads (in Greek) ANDRIZESTHE KRATAIOTSTHE (be a man; be strong if I remember correctly).
Small brass plate on back (would not scan properly!) thats seems to read GAUNT LONDON. Two lugs to rear E/W. Any ideas? Canadian? Dean

This badge has been in use since c. 1910 and the cadet corps still use the same one.

A link to the history overview of No 142. http://www.armycadethistory.com/Cade.../db_cc_142.htm.
And a link to the badges. Scroll down to #142. http://www.armycadethistory.com/hat_badges_collars.htm The site date for the badge is the introduction of the badge. I am not sure if the badge is still in use or if it has been replaced.
