Who had a regimental cap badge similar to a Maltese cross?
Answer There are several British Regimental Cap Badges that are shaped like a Maltese Cross over the years. This shape was common for Rifle regiments and I have three types in my collection: King's Royal Rifle Corps. The Sherwood Forestes had a Maltese Cross with a reclining deer in the center(no wreath). In the current British Army, this badge would be worn by the Royal Green Jackets. Its badge is a Maltese Cross within a Wreath.

The cap badge was s shield with 2 lions with a scroll underneath it having their name and topped with the King's crown. I'm not sure if they wore a sleeve device.

Who has a regimental cap badge with a crown at the top 2 crossed swords in the middle on a circular solid badge from ww1 is it gloucestershire.how can i find a picture?
The Gloucestershire Regiment's cap badge was a Sphinx image sitting on a battle honor EGYPT with a wreath below and the name of the regiment.But the cap badge I found for it was not as you describe at all.There was also a Gloucestershire Yoemanry Regiment that was also known as Royal Gloucestershire Hussars. But the cap badge I found for it was not as you describe at all.I thought maybe the badge you had was a collar device. But again, the Gloucestershire Regiment wore a small Sphinx on their collar.The badge for the Army Personal Training Corps during WW2 was simply crossed swords with a crown mounted above where they crossed.I can't find such a badge. However, during WW1 the British had many different regiments and yeomanry units that only existed for that war.Oh wait! Sometimes cap badges had a backing that was used to attach it. These backings were large round discs. Was the badge you saw attached to a hat? If it was lying by itself, then maybe the circular disc was some type of back plate.+++++++++++I found it!!WW1 Overseas Bronze Badge - Round badge with crossed swords with a wreath around outer edge. Crossed swords in the center with a Crown above them and a 5-pointed Star below it. Across the front is a scroll that reads "OVERSEAS SERVICE". The back is solid with a British style safety pin clasp.I found this on the eBay store of my favorite and most knowledgeable sellers of British and Canadian cap badges. He has one for sale with a PHOTO; list price $25(USD). His ebay seller name is ArticMedals. I'm sure he can explain what this purpose of this badge and maybe know where it was worn. This is not a Cap Badge.Steve, aka Custermen
