Malay States Volunteer Rifles

[Aberdeen Medals]

As I could not find any reference to pre 1939 'Malaya' Volunteer Force insignia on the forum, I am here below posting an illustration of a set of insignia that may be of interest and useful as future reference for members.

The insignia is a cap badge and facing pair of collars of the Malay States Volunteer Rifles

As information.

Nice one Mark. Good to see far east insignia.

Here are two badges , one for the Malay States Volunteer Regiment and the other to the Malay States Volunteer Rifles. Both have pin backs. John.

Interesting to learn that Blackpowder's example to the Malay States Volunteer Rifles has a pin-back fitting - as by contrast my matching set each have 2 x lugs on the reverse of the badges.

Yours aye,
