Spasm Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Gents Does anyone know what this is? Is it victorian militia? Or could it be from when the Light Infantry within regiments were grown in size to see off the French skirmishers? Unit and date-ish would be nice as I can't seem to find much about it. Thanks in advance Spaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur R Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Hi Spaz A similar badge was discussed on another forum in 2008, and the conclusion was that it was probably the 39th Worcestershire Rifle Volunteers.

Spasm Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 (edited) Arthur Looks like you got that one nailed. This is an officers' badge of the Worcestershire Rifle Volunteers from 1859 (from their site - thanks ya'll) Cheers Spaz Edited November 22, 2011 by Spasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
