19th NIAGARA Bty.
I managed to start a “new thread” in the hopes that someone can explain what the IVF stands for on a brass titled Pagri flash that I have which reads, 19 over Niagara over IVF. Regards, D.J.

Correction!
Hello Mark, So sorry to have screwed up! I had posted the correct title in my post previous to the one you answered. (It was the last post in the thread RFA-hidden in plain sight)Unfortunately, I was at the time, putting my 19 Niagara M title in my album, was writing about my 14 CORUNNA IVF title. I will assume that your answer is correct for the Corunna title. I will make the excuse of “it was the lateness of the hour” but more truthfully it’s “likely the lateness of my years!” Best regards and Thank you. D.J.

I've gone and posted a reply on the original 'incorrect thread' not realising you've started a new one. Charlie This is what I said: I'm not sure that you didn't mean to start a seperate thread ? 14th (Corunna) Battery was part of 4th Field Brigade. It wasn't awarded the 'Corunna' title until 1937 so your badge must presumably date to this period ? The name was changed to 17th Corunna Battery and 4th Field Brigade is now 26th Regiment RA. There is more detail on a brief history online here: https://www.26thregra-asc.com/17bty.html and there are some interesting photos on Flikr here but no clear pagri badge! https://www.flickr.com/photos/pjbull...th/5367770493/ Hope this helps Charlie |
