Optimists' National Corps

Thought I'd share this cracking photo I acquired the other day. Not a VTC unit you see too many pictures of, especially in close-up.

Regards,

Hi JT,
Thanks for the great pictures. I had thought the badge I had was worn on an armband.
Cheers, Tinto

Unusual configuration. Dictated, no doubt, by the badge's unconventional
design.

The ONC had a small motor section that operated out of Victoria Station and it formed the basis for the National Motor Volunteers. NOTTALOTTAPEEPORNODATT.

Nice one, H. Thanks for that. I know almost nothing of this unit. Definitely one for further research.

Cheers,

Very, very nice and pleased to see the VTC armband being worn too. Still a part of British military history that we know very little about.
