Remembered Today:

BO.VO. Artillery badge

Can anyone shed any light on this cap badge please

 

Seems quite crude, was it a privately made one?

 

I vaguely remember seeing one similar but cannot recall where or when now

Thank you Keith

 

That makes sense, I will investigate further

 

I could not come up with a plausible option for BO.

 

Much appreciated

This link will be helpful I think: https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=18

Thanks for that link

 

Unfortunately the only question on there re the Bombay Volunteer Artillery is requesting a picture of the cap badge and was in 2011

 

But will keep a note of that forum for the future

 

I’m glad it was at least of interest. Perhaps you could make a post there illustrating the badge that you have for posterity and the benefit of others.

Its not actually my badge, but I posted a picture of it in my original post

It is an unusual title in that all other variants of Bombay Volunteer  Artillery badges and buttons seem to manage to display the title in full. It looks like white metal ? What is the fixation on the reverse ?

Yes until proven its just an option so far

 

I have asked the badge owner for a picture of the reverse

The reverse as requested, not a great picture but all I have received
