Looks very much like my Dad's cap Badge. He was in the Royal Artillery in WWII.

Without trying to promote another Forum, I found that the people on this site are a whizz on uniforms and cap badges, etc from WW1.

Yes - I recognise the GWF site as being full of experts - helpful ones, too, I gather - on WW1.

He looks smarter than the RA soldiers in our Costume Gallery, that cap is very crisp looking.
