Hi.
I assume this badge should be in a/a only? Were they made in BM? Any advice appreciated as I can only find references to a/a badges only.
Thanks
John

SNCOs wore metal ones. They have been faked.

Thanks Alan. I have no idea if mine is good or not, although it is a crisp striking.

Cheers

John

Yours is a good example imo. The bolt fittings are a good sign.

Were the bi-metal ones not also PRI items?
Cheers,

I believe that they were bought rather than issued.
