Default Women's Land Army and Women's Forestry Service
Three nice badges. The right hand WLA badge is well known but I have not seen the other version before. Was it official or is it just a smarter, probably privately purchased, version?

The Women's Forestry Service badge I have seen before but have no idea what they did. Were they connected with the WLA's Timber Corps? Did they wear a uniform?

The National Archives catalogue lists a file on them which ran from April 1939 to February 1949.

Comments please.
