Hi everyone. Could someone tell me what the ‘Y’ is on this army Cheshire Regiment uniform. Sorry not very clear
-
5th Infantry Division. 7th Battalion Cheshire Regiment were with them from 1941.

Thanks for the reply . It could be that the Y is for a Yorkshire connection ‘Northern Command based at York although this may not be the reason for it

Later in the war, units within a Division wore the Divisional sign on their epaulettes.
