Default HOME COUNTIES

"Having now lived in West Sussex for 20 odd years, I had started to collect ACF & CCF badges etc to Sussex schools which has now increased to adding Royal Sussex Regt, Cinque Ports, Sussex Yeomanry and now the Home Counties badges. I would like to include Cloth/printed Formation signs also. I have some shoulder titles for the above and some formation signs but I would like to know what is out there? Can you help with a list of these? "

They were part of the Home Counties brigade from 1958 until the Queens Regt was formed. I think that's what Jerry is saying.

I had always thought Sussex is one of the historical Home Counties
