Above are the scans of this wonderfully preserved vintage badge for the Gloucestershire Regiment. The badge is a white metal version, made using the stamping method. It retains its exquisit design details in high relief. There is a straight pin attachment which may indicate an officer grade badge. Completely iintact, an exceptional find.


Some History: This regiment came from an almalgimation of the 21st and the 61st (South Gloucestershire) Regiment of Foot, after the Childers Reforms of the 1888.
The Gloucestershire Regiment, commonly referred to as the Glosters, was a line infantry regiment of the British Army from 1881 until 1994. It traced its origins to Colonel Gibson's Regiment of Foot, which was raised in 1694 and later became the 28th Regiment of Foot. The regiment was formed by the merger of the 28th Regiment with the 61st Regiment of Foot. It inherited the unique distinction in the British Army of wearing a badge on the back of its headdress as well as the front, a tradition that originated with the 28th Regiment after it fought in two ranks back to back at the Battle of Alexandria in 1801. At its formation the regiment comprised two regular, two militia and two volunteer battalions, and saw its first action during the Second Boer War. It was brought to nil service in 1994.
