Hi Gary,

I see what you mean and I agree, but in my honest opinion it is not 44th Royal Tank Regiment (1945 - 1947), but The North Somerset Yeomanry / 44th Royal Tank Regiment (1956 - 1965).

I assume that Rockape will only award the most correct solutions

Henk,
As it is an AA badge it is unlikely to be mistaken for the 44th Royal Tank Regiment (1945 - 1947). It has to be the North Somerset Yeomanry / 44th Royal Tank Regiment (1956 - 1965).
