Can anyone help please? Was wondering if anyone had a copy of his sign up papers as would like his collar number etc if possible? Many thanks.

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me out with records to a George Patten please? From what I already know he joined up on the 13th March 1882, retiring on 18th March 1907 as an Inspector. He was a Constable in N. Div., Sergeant in W. and M. Div. (possibly station Sergeant), and Inspector in C. Div. Many thanks, Andy

Would the City of London armbands have had a buckle fastening? The reason I ask is I saw a red and white striped example yesterday, which had press studs with no sign of a buckle ever being attached. Many thanks, Andy

With most mines the pin acts as a safety device,when it's removed the mine is armed. When it's replaced it stops the pressure plate from moving. Regards, Andy

Hello, I thought some of you may like to see this badge and certificate awarded to my Grandma for making Swordfish 'planes during the Second World War. I've had the badge for a while,but have only recently got the certificate,which was found when my Mum was going through some of her Mothers things. I don't know if they are rare,but I've certainly never seen another example! Kind regards, Andy

Many thanks for your help Rick,much appreciated!! Kind regards, Andy

Thanks Rick! So if they were worth ?12/$17 in 1993,what are they worth now? Kind regards, Andy

Thanks Rick!! It was cheap, ?12 or $17,did I do ok? Plus it's in mint condition,no mothing/tears etc. The only thing that puzzles me is the lack of maker marks,none at all,is this usual? Kind regards, Andy

Last one!
