Gurkha signals 2 piece cap badge
Dear 54 bty
many thanks for the information regarding hodges book. Unfortunately i do not have a copy. Is there any chance of posting the item on the forum or sending me a copy to my home email address admin@signalsbadges.co.uk would be most interested in seeing it. Thanks again for the interest and time taken to answer. Kind regards chris walker |

Hodges entry as indicated by 54BTY states that the two piece badge on the Stewart taratan is for a slouch hat. Could be relevant. Regards all Bess |

Gurkha Sigs 2 Piece badge
Dear 54bty
Please post the page 82 in Hodges book. I have tried 16 different people to get an email of the page with no joy. Even happy for you to send it to my home address admin@signalsbadges.co.uk My guru Cliff Lord has recently come back to me and said he can't help me. Nice to have a thread go on for so long though. Kind regards Chris Walker |

Hi Guys,
I checked my single piece yesterday and noted that it was of a non anodised metal but marked 'F&S' like many later anodised cap badges. As such, I will be taking it off the web page later and asking for an image if anyone has one. Regards Chris |

Another 2 Piece badge
Dear All
Just checked my version today and found that it is also a 2 piece badge. It is pretty obvious that it has been constructed in this way and is not made up by breaking the crown off another badge. It was obtained quite a few years ago and the brass plate looks like it has been shaped (rounded) for wear. Paddy |

gurkha signal 2 piece cap badge
Dear Paddy.
Of all the posts on this Thread, yours is the only badge I have seen that actually looks the part. I have seen an example exactly the same as this from Cliff Lord. It is the first time I have seen two identical badges as Cliff says his came with a back plate as well. As I started this thread as mentioned above Paddy. I think I must say that yes there was a two piece Gurkha Signals badge. However, not all the badges I have seen are genuine. Many thanks Paddy. Chris Walker vraic. |

I've been doing some work on lugs lately and this looks like it was made by FIRMIN. Can you provide a rear view shot of the badge and describe any maker marks that you see. Regards Chris |

2 piece gurkha sig badge
Bess.
I now concede. Yours now make three all the same. I am told by Cliff Lord they were probably made in Hong Kong. If I can get hold of one I will definately put it in my site. Thanks for the view Cheers Chris |

2 Piece Gurkha Signals Cap Badge
Deaqr All.
As this Thread seems to have caused some interest in the past and as I now have one of my own. I thought I would just point out that there seems to be one for sale on ebay currently as at 16th Sept 2012. Item number is 110949603575 It looks genuine !!!!!!??????? Good luck to someone. Be aware. They do not come up for sale very ofter. It took me a long time to obtain one. Best wishes Chris Walker www.signalsbadges.co.uk |
