POW plumes; which regt.?
Just received this nice officer bladed badge, presumably for the FSC.
I am thinking RWY, but there are other possibilities.... CB

No, that is just corrosion on the blade. It is silver and gilt.

Denbigh Hussars might be an option. They wore Bz in khaki but they must have had No1 Dress caps as well.

It looks like Cheshire Yeomanry.

The officer's badges for the RWY have a very distinctive pattern of feathers so I don't think it belongs to them.

Thanks all; I bought this here in the US and the seller actually thought it to be Denbighshire, but my thoughts were RWY. Did the 15th London wear a silver and gilt badge on some form of head dress at some time? I don't know of the slightly smaller size and rather upright angled scrolls have any significance.
