Default First Hussars Officers
It's been a while since I've managed to pick off a great deal on Ebay. I was the only bidder on a small group of WW2 medals... this badge was thrown in as a bonus.... My lucky day ... Jim

The 4 medals were unrelated... a 1939-45 Star... a Burma Star... an Atlantic Star and a 1939-45 War Medal... there was also an original medal mailing box addressed to a J Ryecroft of Notttingham ...
