For the British army, the cap badge is the most easily identifiable form of insignia.
It represents a distillation of the pride of the regiment, its various battle honours and symbols borne proudly on the metallic emblem that was worn on all head dress, even within the trenches. Identification of the cap badge on old photographs is the first, important step in unravelling the military service of an individual.
This handy companion illustrates clearly the main types, helping you to avoid a growing number of fakes and forgeries, and allows the collector and family historian alike to understand their meaning.
