wainfleet Posted 6 May , 2012 Share Posted 6 May , 2012 I believe this is the Lancashire Division, postwar Army of Occupation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffsyeoman Posted 6 May , 2012 Share Posted 6 May , 2012 It's a rather trimmed down badge of the 55th (West Lancashire) Division. No permanent Border Regiment attachments I can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Flashman V.C. Posted 6 May , 2012 Author Share Posted 6 May , 2012 There is also a set of sgt stripes but he was never a sergeant. Thanks for the replies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoppage Drill Posted 6 May , 2012 Share Posted 6 May , 2012 There is also a set of sgt stripes but he was never a sergeant. Some now-forgotten Frog once famously said that every soldier had a marshals baton in his knapsack. Maybe your great grandad was a pragmatist.

pbrydon Posted 6 May , 2012 Share Posted 6 May , 2012 Wainfleet is right.The badge combines elements of those of the 55th (West Lancs ) and 32nd Divisions P.B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
