Default Next one: g/m grenade with w/m POW feathers

Hi All,

Sorry if this is getting boring but I am cataloguing my entire collection which has just doubled in size from 350 to 700 badges after some recent frenzied purchasing.

I really can't find this one either. I wish there was a way of looking things up by devices like POW feathers, dragons, shields etc.!

Apologies - the newer badges may be bread and butter to most of you but I've never really strayed outside WWI.

Sheer guess - an Indian unit?
Having said that, looks a bit newly made.

Cool Unknown

With those screw fixings it looks like a pouch badge.

It’s possibly a Royal Welch Fusiliers pouch badge, I’ll check it out later and compare it to one I have.

Thank you, Jonathan. RWF was my first port of call but I don't speak "pouch badges" so your advice would be most welcome. Particularly regarding which period it was used.

Thanks

Tom
