These pages are very out of date now and will contain quite a few omissions and errors. If I get a moment I will try and check through them all and get the pages working again if they are not working. Problem is that I am pretty busy at the mo with getting a book to the printers this week and then having to do some outstanding work with German combat badges and don't see much spare time for a few weeks.

The black painted badge was picked up about 1973 along with unpainted "RA Hughes Ltd" and "T&S" two piece versions (from a junk shop in Lee, S.E. London for 5p each), the unpainted badge from forum "Classifieds" in 2017. The fact that the one piece badge is painted suggests (can't be sure) that it had been in wear around the time of purchase, painted black for wear in NI, officially authorised for all units from early September 1973. From reading other posts in this thread it appears that the one piece trials reject badges found their way into wear over the decades since manufacture. Some surviving having been issued during the trials to squaddies who've continued to wear them? Others "found in a box in stores" and utilised or sneaked into the supply chain decades later by the manufacturer? |
