One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

Good afternoon/evening,

Welcome back Scrimmers, thought I hadn't seen much input from you. Not that i've done so much myself as it happens.

Hope your book has lots of pictures  ;D ;D ;D, Many books picture some and just give descriptions of others, especially variations of badges.

Great book scrimnet. I haven't finished reading it yet but I like the way it's laid out - very accessible for family historians and those who try to help them identify the regiments their ancestors served in.

Excellent Thanks!!

Its the first to break the order of precedence...Its so much easier to compare and contrast the badges now.
