hhbooker2 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I had seen British Army Colonels, Brigadiers, Generals, and Field Marshals wearing gorget patches mostly in red with either a red gimp, gold cord, or gold oakleaves, BUT! I am aware they have them in white for Sandhurst Militrary Cadets, for Dentists, Dictors, Educational Corps, etc., not sure how many coloured backgrounds and how far back, maybe the 1880s in India perhaps? Digger History does show some nice examples, but only a few, am sure there are many, many more I and others have yet to see? I have tried to collect them and get outbid on the few I see on eBay Auctions, would settle for good colour photographs, scans, or pictures of them! Especially Victorian and Edwardian era?
