For sure you want to visit Milarms and talk with Al Kerr. He can show you his museum on the upper floor of the building and that alone is worth the trip. Not to sure if he would have any British badges for sale but you never know.... I rate it as a must see.... Blue Jar Antiques on Stony Plain Road and about 154St usually have badges and other militaria on hand...

Milarm hours are 9:30am-5:30pm Monday-Saturday... Thursday night till 7:00pm... closed Sunday... address is 10769-99st NW... phone 780-424-5281

The Rocky Mountain Antique mall on about 76thave and 103st usually has a couple of display cases of militaria... it's priced pretty high... some suspect German items... but at least you can find items to see there...

Them and the Blue Jar are your best bets as far as antique stores go... never anything much in the other ones but you never know....

Also... if it looks like the museum is closed ask for Al Kerr... he'll be happy to take you up... if he's not there say to the staff you are from out of town and came especially to see the museum... they'll usually take you up.... Jim
