I've just made up seven pairs of serge 'shields' and red felt arms of service strips that are free to PBI members.

All you need to get yourself is your polar bear patches and the shoulder titles.

No probs, six left.

The good thing is pete is that with the exception of the tank badge you can tack these over exsiting badges on BD!

Yes, that's great. I've taken the tank badge off now anyway. Just my Cpl stripes on my bd now.

Sorted guys, PM me your addresses.

3 sets left.

I can make some more btw if demand outstrips, I'm using size *7* 49 pattern jackets that no-one over 11 years old would fit anyway.

Two left!

I can cut more if needs be.

Note these are the correct shorter type, not the incorrect sort in the kit guide.

What you will need to do is fold up two or three mil round the edge when you sew it on to get a smooth edge (like with printed insig)

I'll send a picture of what they look like on with each posted set.-- attachment is not available --

Or even better put a proper hem on them and they'll be a lot easier to put on the BD if you do it repeatedly and they'll hold together for longer when off the BD.

good point rich, and actually what i've done on mine, no idea why i said just fold it!

Rich is right, hem it... doh..

BTW get printed 'aggresive polar bears' (not woven ones form montys locker) and get your Hallams titles in red on serge from Montys locker.

He's very helpful, if you phone him early tomorrow, you might be able to get him to change the order before it's sent out.
