hodgsonp Posted 5 January , 2004 Share Posted 5 January , 2004 I have thought about posting this or not as I was starting to think it may be too difficult, however, given the superb help I have had on a number of other topics recently it would seem churlish not to give you lot a chance to impress me again. This is my Uncle Luther Paxton - he is from Richmond North Yorkshire. His brother Tom served in the Green Howards for sure, but this badge does not look like any Green Howards badge I have so far seen. Any other info on the uniform appreciated as I am tring to date the picture also. I have been through most pictures of badges at the following site (which has over 1000 !!) http://www.arbeia.demon.co.uk/srs/collect/milsig.htm Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CROONAERT Posted 5 January , 2004 Share Posted 5 January , 2004 Pete. It's the shoulder title for the 4th Bn (either 1/4, 2/4 or 3/4) of the Yorkshire Regiment (Alexandra, Princess of Wales' Own) - the Green Howards. (Territorial Force) It consists of a letter "T" over a number "4" over the "Yorks" title. Dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
