flaming grenades

[Artynut]

Hello Brian and others again, I know this should be in the South African section but I did not want to cut the interesting thread on sand cast badges in the Army section of S.A. So, here are two more plastic backed Arty badges, one of which I have lost my reference card for. Can you help me Brian? Best regards, David J.

Badge on the right is Regiment Oos (East) Transvaal (Anti Aircraft) Nice to see this with it's plastic backing, my example is missing these, very nice!

Not often seen, the unit was a teritorial regiment.

Attaching a picture of their shoulder flash.

Thank you Brian, You just identified another arm badge for me as well! Soon I have to start taking apart all my S.A. frames and put the correct pieces together! Best regards, David J.

Glad to have been of assistance, attaching a pic of a cloth version in my collection.

David and others, here is a link to a rather interesting online publication on the SA Artillery: http://www.rfdiv.mil.za/pdfs/publica...ner/gunner.pdf
