I recently obtained this badge and would like to ask if a Forum member knows when it was worn?

Kind regards, Malcolm.

I would suggest circa 1910-30. I have been unable to find anything more precise. I would have expected any cadet unit in the 1930s and 40s to have been badged to the Norfolk Regiment.

Whether it is a cap or collar is unknown.

Thanks Peter.

I agree, it is a nicely made badge complete with makers details on reverse.

If anyone’s interested. Would swop for RFC/RNAS or early RAF insignia.

Kind regards, Malcolm.
