It would appear that the regiment continued to wear QVC insignia for some time. There are other WW1 photos and all have the QVC.

A well known picture. They continued to wear the QVC badge long after WW1.

Ditto the QOOH.

Even into the 1950s by some senior NCOs. There is a series of photographs in the Staffordshire Archives of a Staff Sergeant receiving his Territorial Efficiency Medal from a local dignitary and he is wearing a QVC badge.

Which begs the question, did the ever wear the KC? Or was this regimental custom as the QOOH?
