That First Bridging Company is a really scarce badge. The others are great, but I think it is the gem.

Thanx Bill,

It was not the most expensive the 10th Trench Mortar Bty was! My mistake but I diid think that when I first saw the badge without asking the price! I was thinking $$$. Not so bad!

Cheers Rob
