Pat

All the indications are that your grandfather was indeed RAMC, though the
badge as you describe it is a bit of a mystery. Are you able to send me a
scan on and I may be able to identify this for you.

Subject: [WW1] WWI cap badge


> Just found a picture of my grandfather in a WWI uniform. Three stripes on
his sleeve and a round badge on the arm with a cross in it. I gather from
this that he was a sergeant in a medical unit. I enlarged his cap badge and
spent the morning on google looking at web sites with pictures of cap
badges. It is identical to the cap badge on the Royal Army Medical Corp
except that, rather than the crown on top of the wreath, it has either an E
or an F. Anyone have any ideas?
