BRITISH CAP BADGE TO THE ROYAL ARTILLERY
E-mail
This is the Standard Dark Brass Other Ranks Headdress Badge as was worn by the ROYAL ARTILLERY from 1901 through to 1958. "Quartermaster's Comment":- Note their famous motto "UBIQUE"- Everywhere. This of course is interpreted for them by the Royal Engineers, who have the same motto, as meaning in the case of the Artillery--"All over the place"!!! Nevertheless their guns are their Colours and they guard them well.
