Peter,

Very nice items indeed, so often paper items must have been thrown away and so rarer than a lot of badges I imagine.

I really like to see paper work such as this that has survived the ravages of time. It gives so much more potential for research than a cap badge on its own.

Thank you for posting it.

Thanks Simon,

It’s paperwork like this that brings badges to life. You can see where they fit into overall military history.
