Has anybody information on the bronze cap badge for the 11th (Service Battn) Manchesters?
Specifically, where and when this was worn? I have been browsing the hundreds of fantastic photographs, and can see no reference to this badge....
The badge is fleur de lys, with scroll reading "11th Manchester". I gather it has also been seen in silver, so presumably for officers only?
All the information on this site suggests that the fleur de lys cap badge was not worn until 1922/23 (1923 officially approved), so am seeking clarification on theis confusing issue.
Is the badge in question a collar badge?
Thanks to all in anticipation!
