A smashing example of a
WW-II British Home Front
Sweetheart Bar Brooch
for the loved one of a member of the
Royal Corps of Signals
1939-45
Formed in 1920 as the Corps of Signals
with the 'Royal' being confirmed by the King
shortly thereafter,
the Signals served in all theatres of World War Two,
including
France, Norway, The Western Desert, Italy & North-West Europe.
By 1945 the Corps had expanded
to some 8,519 officers & over 142,000 enlisted men...
having lost some 4,362 men killed in action by war's end.
Composed of a small coloured enamelled Signals cap badge,
mounted on an approx 2" wide pin-back
this is another attractive wee WW-II British Sweetheart Brooch
in a very good, issued, condition.
Thanks for looking..!
