Derbyshire Yeomanry Cap badge and lot

[loupie1961]

I have been lucky enough to win an auction on a lot of badges related to a 1st Batn Derbyshire Yeomanry Trooper. This lot is of great meaning to me, since Derbyshire Yeomanry led the way for the 6th Armoured Division towards Florence, my birth town, in the summer of 1944. The lot comprehends Trooper Burford's campaign medals, his dog tags, a Derbyshire Yeomanry white metal cap badge, and a poignant sweetheart pendant with his portrait. Please notice that in the pic, Trooper Burford seems to wear on his RAC beret a RAC cap badge, not the DY rose.
