WW1 British BEF Pembroke Yeomanry Regiment Cap Badge (2)

The WW1 British BEF Pembroke Yeomanry Regiment Cap Badge is a metal insignia issued to members of the Pembroke Yeomanry during the First World War. The Pembroke Yeomanry, originally formed in 1794, was a cavalry regiment from Pembrokeshire, Wales. During the First World War, it served as part of the British Expeditionary Force (BEF) in various capacities, including deployment in Egypt and on the Western Front. The cap badge typically features the regiment’s distinguishing emblems, often incorporating a dragon or crown, along with unit-specific inscriptions such as “Pembroke Yeomanry.” Made of brass or white metal, the badge would be affixed to the headdress as a mark of regimental identity. Such badges were worn by both officers and other ranks, and their design reflects the heritage and regional affiliation of the unit. This item represents a tangible connection to the military history of the British Army during the First World War.
