Default The Norfolk Regiment of Canada

Hello to all Canadian forum members.

I'm hoping that at least one of you might be able to help with this request for a decent photo of a 100% genuine Norfolk Regiment of Canada cap badge.

I have been trying to acquire one of these badges for a while, and although they crop up from time to time, I do not think I have yet seen a really good one. Most I have encountered tend to be very roughly fashioned, particularly around the arm, hand and olive sprig areas, so to have a good example with which to compare would be extremely helpful.

With thanks,

Peter

Hello Peter, There is an image of a good example of the Norfolk Regiment of Canada on the Gallery.

Bill,

Thanks very much. For some ridiculous reason I hadn't thought to look in the gallery... the unstoppable onslaught of old age, no doubt.

Many thanks,

PJ

Hello Peter

Are you still looking for a Norfolk Regiment of Canada cap badge. If so, check this link on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...#ht_500wt_1413

That seller starts his stuff at the very high end of the spectrum. Should be able to find a Norfolk cap badge for a lot less than that.
