City of London ATS Comapnies?
In surfing seeking future items to add to my collection, I have run across a London ATS patch that I haven't been able to find anything about. It's a long sided narrow khaki triangle with a red sword on it pointing up. Can anyone advise me exactly what this is as I always understood the only additional insignia hte ATS ladies wore was a collar dog for the regiment/corps they were serving in, and maybe also the pact for the same. I do understand that a FANY girl with previous experience would be allowed to also wear he FANY title on their shoulders.
Thank you! Terry |

From my book Badges on Battle Dress
The first cloth badge appeared on ATS uniform in November 1939 after the Lord Mayor of London requested that ATS City of London companies ‘should be given the honour and privilege of wearing the insignia of the City’ on both jacket sleeves. It was not officially recorded until published in Army Council Instruction of 21st January 1942. Jon |
