Bill3688 Posted 27 January Share Posted 27 January Good evening guys. I am completely lost. I have found this horse whip in my grand father's attic. Its believed to be WW1 but I cannot find what the insignia is. Can any one help? MASSIVE THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Michelle Young Posted 27 January Admin Share Posted 27 January Welcome to the forum. The badge looks like the Royal Corps of Signals founded 1920. The Certa Cito motto was adopted in 1947. I will await the experts like @FROGSMILE to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang on correct Michelle, it looks more like a swagger stick head than a riding whip, but we’d need to see the other end to be sure.

Bill3688 Posted 27 January Author Share Posted 27 January Thank you so much for your time. I served for 25 years , recently left and was attached to the Royal Signals! I think your 100% correct and I apologise for wasting your time as it wouldn't be from the WW1 era. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham No problem Graham, formation level signals during WW1 were provided by the forebears of the Royal Signals, the Signals Service, Royal Engineers.
