WW2 British Warwickshire Yeomanry Officer’s Cap Badge

The WW2 British Warwickshire Yeomanry Officer’s Cap Badge is a military insignia issued to officers of the Warwickshire Yeomanry during the Second World War. This badge features the regiment’s distinctive emblem, typically a crowned silver or brass fleur-de-lys with a scroll beneath inscribed “Warwickshire Yeomanry.” The design reflects the unit’s origins and historical ties to the county of Warwickshire. Cap badges were worn on the service dress cap and functioned as a means of identification for regimental affiliation. This example represents the style used by officers, often characterized by higher-quality materials and a more detailed finish compared to other ranks. The Warwickshire Yeomanry served as a cavalry regiment within the British Army, with a recorded history dating back to the late 18th century. During WW2, the regiment participated in operations in the Middle East and North Africa, making such badges significant artifacts of regimental and British military history.
