Wink Durham Bling !

Hi all,

Just back from the UK and courtesy of Les Martin I have some pretty nice additions to my Durham Light Infantry collection.

First is an Officers bullion DLI badge mounted on a brass plate with slider attachment post-1881. Second is a hallmarked sterling silver DLI Officer's cap badge with three lugs - Jennens & Co, Birmingham 1923 - makers name to rear and hallmarks to the end of the bugle. First HMSS or bullion Durham's badges I have seen.

More to follow on bullion badge when I get to Dress Regulations.

Very happy, regards Dean.

I find myself very envious of the DLI sterling silver badge.....very nice indeed.
