WW2 British Queen Mary’s Regiment Surrey Yeomanry Cap Badge

The WW2 British Queen Mary’s Regiment Surrey Yeomanry Cap Badge is a military insignia worn by members of the Surrey Yeomanry, officially known as the Queen Mary’s Regiment, during the Second World War. The badge is typically constructed from brass and features the regimental insignia, which commonly includes the royal cypher or crown, scrolls with the regiment’s name, and distinctive design elements reflecting Surrey Yeomanry heritage. Cap badges such as this served to identify unit affiliation and were an integral part of British military uniforms. The Surrey Yeomanry was a cavalry regiment that, like many others, was converted to other roles including artillery and signals during WW2. The badge would have been worn on the service or field cap as part of the standard dress regulations. Examples from the wartime period provide historical insight into regimental organization and the evolution of British military insignia.
