47 (Middlesex Yeomanry Cavalry) Signal Squadron Officer's Bullion Side Cap Badge - QEII issue

Superb quality officers field service cap bullion wire embroidered cap badge as worn on the left side of the cap. A nicely padded badge has the " MYC " monogram on a black velvet ground to the centre of an oval bearing the motto and surmounted by a Queen's crown. Scarce.

See my item 59266 for the King's Crown version (sadly now sold).

When the Middlesex Yeomanry converted to Royal Signals they retained their cap badge. Now represented by 47 (Middlesex Yeomanry) Signal Sqn, they wear a lanyard of parachute cord in dull green and gold to remember their service as airborne signals. The squadron collar badges and buttons are those of the Middlesex Yeomanry, and the squadron has retained Middlesex Yeomanry Stable belts and Side caps. Officers wear a woven wire Middlesex Yeomanry badge with the side cap. The SQMS has the distinction of wearing four chevrons
