Default 78th Division RE Field Companies

Put together in due time: combo insignia of three Royal Engineers Field Companies serving with the 78th Division, 237th, 214th and 281st, if I am not mistaken....

Very nice, thanks for showing. Does anyone know if Divisional HQ signals had their own, or 11 Bde HQ signals?
