I always enjoy regiment/corps/regional collecting themes.

Great caps, thank you for sharing.
I've a small Welsh Guards collection, as a Cousin 3rd or something like that something or other removed, (must look it up sometime what the relationship is exactly), served in WW1, so always been interested. Just a quick question if I may, hopefully not highjacking your thread! I visited the WG museum at the Park Hall country side experience a number of years ago,in there, there was a bronze leak cap star on blades, the guy said it was for the OSD cap, I have never seen the cap with a bronze badge, always the wire one as depicted on your cap. Any ideas? Cheers Chris |

thanks Frank, certainly not something you see often in any condition so it had to be bought. It was a forum member who gave me the heads up on it, it was on a FB sales group.

Here are my two Welsh Guards officer visor caps; a WWII service dress version, and a named post 1953 dress cap.
