Hi Paul

The Loyal North Lancs in the last picture looks like its been converted to a sweetheart kinda thing-proper clasp pin on the back- the rarer ones are the Recce Corps and the Control Commision Germany and the Royal Flying corps-cavalry and infantry make more than corps units as with all badges condition is everything

Cheers

Hi

Thought this would be of some interest

Over the last few years I have researched a man Called Otto Schatt who's buried on the Monarch Isles in the Hebrides-he was a motor machinist on U110 sunk in 1918 and I have wanted to own something from the Uboat. Last year I managed to get something, A Uboat flotilla militarpas to a guy who served on U110 but survived the war-posted off before the sinking here's some pictures of the pass
