Just out of interest, when worn is the sword hilt to the front or rear?

If following the cap badge I'd say to the rear. Perhaps Voltigeur can dig up an IWM photo showing them being worn?

Nice, but such a shame the grouping was split up.
I've got a few bits of his empemera, ID card and some lovely photos that appeared on ebay.
