WW1 British BEF Glamorgan Regiment Cap Badge

The WW1 British BEF Glamorgan Regiment Cap Badge is a metal insignia issued during the First World War to members of the Glamorgan Regiment within the British Expeditionary Force. Typically constructed from brass or white metal, the badge features a distinctive regimental design, which often incorporates the Welsh dragon and a scroll inscribed with the regiment’s name. Cap badges served as an essential part of British Army uniform, identifying the wearer’s regiment and fostering unit cohesion. The Glamorgan Regiment, formed as part of the Territorial Force, played a notable role among Welsh units in the BEF. This badge would have been worn on the service dress cap, fastened by lugs or a slider on the reverse. The design and manufacture reflect the standards of British military insignia of the period. Collectors value such badges for their historical significance, connection to Welsh military heritage, and as representations of First World War material culture.
