mark holden Posted 5 December , 2006 Author Share Posted 5 December , 2006 Garron, Coincidentally I was at the Bristol Medal Fair on Sunday and saw a 38th Div Patch for £75, however all the blue backing cloth had been eaten or cut away, so all that was left was the red dragon. According to the seller some divisional troops cut the backing cloth away and just wore the dragon(?) regards Mark Thanks Mark 50-60 was not as bad i was expecting, Still a little expesive for me, If i come across one I may well pick it up as it would be nice to have.

Garron Posted 5 December , 2006 Share Posted 5 December , 2006 hi Mark I have never heard of that before, wouldnt surprise me, soliders removed the stiffening wire from hats so that could be true. Garron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
