E-mail
A nice crisp example of this Cap Badge. "Quartermaster's Comment":- As may well have been worn during the Second World War. A nice example to the most senior Cavalry Regiment in the British Army. This came about when the 1st and 2nd Life Guards were amalgamated in 1922. Comes with its original split-pin.
