jay dubaya Posted 5 December , 2018 Share Posted 5 December , 2018 Mike Chappell’s ‘ British Battle Insignia’ can be picked up for a few quid these days, it’s not comprehensive by any means but fills a few gaps. Kevin Beckhurst’s ‘British Battle Insignia’ a new publication I have yet to see so can’t really comment but looks pretty comprehensive and for the price tag I’d like to think it is. Forum member Arthur has a fantastic publication very comprehensive although out of print now. Search the forum for ‘cloth formation signs’ and the thread should come up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
