    Keep them coming Andy.

    In the meantime here are a few more of mine. First up are 2 from regiments two of my great Grandfathers served in.

    Arthur Thurston from the Elephant & Castle of the 12th London Batt. the Rangers 1913-1916 (no longer fit for duty).

    Tom Forrester from Bermondsey of the 24th London Batt. the Queens 1899-1901 and 1914-1918.

    Here's a later 19th Queen Alexandra's Own Royal Hussars, 1909 - 1922.

    I don't know what the horse is so I'd be pleased to hear from anyone who can ID it.

    Thanks

    Tony

    Ralph,

    The badge you show in post #2 may well be the crown for adding to a Helmet Plate Centre for wear on the glengarry. Have a look at the loops on the back, there should be 2 U shaped loops of the same kind that you should find on the back of the HPC in post 74. The two were worn together with a brass backing plate.
