WW2 British East Yorkshire Regiment Cap Badge

The WW2 British East Yorkshire Regiment Cap Badge is an original military insignia issued to soldiers of the East Yorkshire Regiment during the Second World War. The badge features the regiment’s distinctive design: a stylized white rose of Yorkshire set within a laurel wreath, surmounted by a king’s crown, with a scroll below bearing the regiment’s title. Constructed primarily from brass, this cap badge was typically worn on the service dress cap as part of the standard British Army uniform. The East Yorkshire Regiment, also known as the 15th Regiment of Foot, served in various theatres during WW2, including the Western European campaigns. The design and materials are consistent with British cap badges of the era, with detail and craftsmanship characteristic of wartime production. This item holds historical significance for collectors of military memorabilia and those interested in British regimental history from the 1939–1945 period.
