Regimental Insignia on the Net?

[Michael Ockenden]

Does anyone know of a site where I can find downloadable pix of regimental badges and insignia such as shoulder flashes?

Comments appreciated.

Hi

Also try the 20th Centuary Canuck site

VMT for the replies.

The catalogue is very comprehensive but unfortunately it's B+W; I'll check out the Canuck site now.

Renewed thanks.

I do not know whether this will help you or not but here goes anyway. By the way, would you have a spot of tea for me? At the nearest Naffi. I am sending two separate photos in two separate threads.

Mike:
Here is number two frame. I think the naffi is a little before your time.

Thanks very much, Norm, for showing those wonderful pix – guess that’s your collection. If so, congratulations on a very fine one. Is what we see your own photograph? What about the orginals?

Yes, I can indeed remember NAAFI tea (1950 vintage) – but was there really bromide in it?

Thanks again.

Thanks for the links – very helpful.

As for National Service – well, it was still going on at the time, but I was a 5-year regular. However, my uniform was light blue. But don’t tell anyone on this forum or I might get locked out!
