Title: Rhodesia Regiment Badge Kings Crown 1927 - 1947 Pattern.

Height: 6.0cm.

Width: 4.5cm.

Metal: Brass with slider and clasp at rear, Maltese Cross with Kings Crown.

Info: The badge was adopted by the Rhodesia regiment between 1927 and 1942.

Other Rhodesia Regiment Bages have the "Royal" inscription in the centre which is a post 1947 Badge. The Kings Crown was changed to the Lion after Rhodesia declared UDI in 1965.

The Rhodesia Regiment (RR) was one of the oldest and largest regiments in the Rhodesian Army. It served on the side of the United Kingdom in the Second Boer War and the First and Second World Wars and served the Republic of Rhodesia in the Rhodesian Bush War.

In 1947, as a result of its service in World War II the regiment was granted the title of Royal Rhodesia Regiment by King George VI, who became the regiment's first Colonel-in-Chief. When Rhodesia became a republic in 1970, the regiment's title reverted to Rhodesia Regiment with Queen Elizabeth II resigning her position as Colonel-in-Chief. Wikipedia.

The Rhodesia Regiments Badge is part of the Militaria Collection of Lt Col AD Irvine who served in the Union Defence Force in North Africa and Europe during WW2 and for the South African Air Force.

Condition: Excellent, with red cloth insert and clasp in the rear all intact, a superb example of a rather rare badge.

Price: R 695.00 Inc Vat.
