WW1 British BEF Pembroke Yeomanry Regiment Cap Badge

The WW1 British BEF Pembroke Yeomanry Regiment Cap Badge is a military insignia issued to members of the Pembroke Yeomanry during the First World War. The Pembroke Yeomanry, initially raised as a volunteer cavalry regiment, formed part of the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) following the outbreak of war in 1914. The cap badge typically features the regiment’s distinctive emblem, which often includes a stylized representation of the Prince of Wales’s feathers, a coronet, and a scroll inscribed with the regiment’s name. Constructed from brass, this badge was worn on the service dress cap as part of the standard uniform. Its design reflects the Pembroke Yeomanry’s regional identity within the British Army’s yeomanry tradition. The badge serves as a historical artifact, providing insight into early twentieth-century military heraldry and the organizational structure of the British Army during the Great War.
