RFC,RAF & ??? badge
Terry37 replied to Shots Dave's topic in Great Britain: Militaria: Badges, Uniforms & Equipment
The RFC and RAF badges are Cap badges. The RFC one is called a domed version. Cannot say about the eagle as it is not a style I have seen before. Terry- 1 reply

Could be South African if he original color was indeed orange. If it was red, then Royal Artillery comes to mind. Terry -
Help with Camo MK2
Terry37 replied to joaobr's topic in Great Britain: Militaria: Badges, Uniforms & Equipment
Looks like it has some age to me. A lot of American soldiers painted up their helmets after the armistice, and would often include a Division sign. Some were pretty gaudy too! Not my picture, just found on hte net to show some examples. Terry -
Not sure if this is the right place, but will post here based on he category description. One of my other collecting pleasures is autogrpahs although I don't pursue it quite as activily as I did in the past. Anyway, here are some, with my real prize being the first one. A few more.

Here is some of my Commonwealth badge collection covering medical, nursing and women's services. Australian, New Zealand, Canadian and a few South African Nursing items. Yes, the Australian nurses sleeve patch is a reproduction, - a kind gift from a collector ins Australia, and a badge I doubt I'll ever be able to manage a real one so I am quite happy with it. I'll post more of my collection over the next several days. Thank you for looking, Terry

New here, but I too collect British medical and nursing. As time allows and as I become more familiar with this forum I will share some of my collection. Cannot compare to the fines ones I see in this thread, but we all have to start somewhere. I will try to post what I consider the centerpiece in my collection - two RAMC brassards worn in Bosnia in the 90s, given to me by the officer who wore them, with a picture of him wearing the one on the right, his signature and a brief account of his career. The red cross brassard does have the Army stamp on it, and neither have been cleaned since they were worn. I feel very fortunate to have them. I also collect Home Guard, WAAC to WRAC, CD, FANY, VAD, MERT, TMW, DARTS and some WLA. I am always interested in items folks might like to let go. Terry
