Remembered Today:

Help to identify Cap Badge please

Good Morning. I'm struggling to identify the cap badge worn by this Serviceman on this postcard. 

My initial thoughts were Royal Naval Division Anson Battalion? 

I'd be very greatful for any help in identifying the Cap Badge.

Regards Simon

It’s a Prince of Wales’s feathers badge with title scroll that’s slanted backwards and given you a distorted view Simon.  From the width and shape of title scroll it’s the badge of the Welsh Regiment.

I’m glad to help, he’s flattened his cap down quite a lot and even raised the leather chin strap to sit under the badge giving a much lower silhouette almost like a workman’s cap.
