Looks like the badge is definitely worn by the Police - we know that the gold badge was (is) used by the army do we have any information on the silver badge being worn under military authorisation? Regards Chris |

HI Jerry,
That's the one - I don't think it got to A/A though as they had adequate stocks of the chromed version. The sealed pattern tags have the word LAPEL on them so assume that is where they were worn. Many Thanks Chris |

Yes, the A/A badge was certainly authorised for issue but I don't think any were bulk manufactured due to stocks of existing chrome items as per Jerry's pattern card. I have the figures at home in one of my book's appendices for the chrome version. Can provide figures as required. Regards Chris |

What is 19236? How do we find out what sealed pattern No 19236 is ? Can we contact the MOD and just ask?
