Hi All,

 

I'm wondering if anyone can identify the unit that wore this flash on the Wolseley helmet?  Very grateful for any clues.

If no one from this Forum can help, you could contact militarysunhelmets.com  which contains the  following two articles 

 "British Puggarees 2, 3, 4 and 6 Folds" by Stuart Bates. May 22, 2012. "Helmet Flashes in the British Army" by Benny Bough July 30, 2012. Includes details of two series of reference articles by John Mollo, and by Ron Kidd in The Formation Sign, Journal of The Military Heraldry Society.

 

Cheers

A very belated thanks Maureene - I found out subsequently that it was worn by a member of the NZ Machine Gun Corps, which was really interesting.  Thanks very much for your helpful post.
