Want List
Known Display Photo Errors:
Display-1:
- Explosive Ordnance Disposalman distinguishing mark is upside down. The reference book originally used has this DM shown incorrectly. The “mine” contacts should be pointing upward.
Display-2:
- Mechanic PO1 should not be “Right Arm” rate. The original collector glued this badge into a scrapbook and I mistakenly arranged it based on the glue on the back of the badge. Mechanic rating did not appear until 1948, after the last “right arm” rates were disestablished.
Display-6:
- 1866 rating badge (eagle under star) could be right arm or left arm rate depending on wearer's Assignment / Watch section. This comment also applies to the 1841 rating badge Eagle.
