Saying Hello
Hi to all here
Just joined and saying hello, I used to collect Army badges when I was young, my dad was in the 68 Med Regt Royal Artillery then the 147 (Essex Yeomanry) Field Regt RA (TA) and my brother was in the 3 Para's.and I used to spend a lot of summer holidays with him in Aldershot, now I've got time to sift through my collection and this forum seems a very good place to help me identify some of the badge's I don't know. cheers

Welcome Steve,
I suspect that is how many of us started by collecting badges when we were young. The problems arise when you take up the hobby again when you are older,it can easily develop into something close to an obsession. Peter
