Originally published in 1971, this excellent book has been revised several times. The edition we read was the 7th edition from 2003.
It is an excellen insight into the collection of military badges, a hobby enjoyed bymany. It covers the majority of British Army units, from the Cavalry and Armoured corps via the Guards, infantry and airborne to the support arms. It includes volunteer units and the home guard, as well as some of the training establishments known to many. The updates cover the organisational changes the army has gone through as it moves from peace time duties to war, and back again.
A well illustrated book, a must for those interested in British Military badges.
