I shall shortly be starting an article about Military badges and try to identify any you have and dont know what they are.
I also will be showing a few photos of Military Sweetheart Brooches of the Great War and before.
Sweetheart Brooches were a nickname for the type of badge locket or jewellery that a soldier either made himself in or out of the trenches or had made by a Jeweller which would be his regimental badge made out of Gold silver or gilt with diamonds or any precious stones or pearls, the range is vast.
Also what will come into the topic as well will be Battlefield Brooches, which were a soldiers way of getting round the censor
France 1915 all the mail was heavily censored and all a soldier could write home in a letter or photo was I am somewhere in France but he had a crafty way to get round this. He would buy a badge of Ypres, Verdun etc and then send that home.
Also being covered will be Military Tiepins and Bayonets badges or tiepins
So if you have any post them hereÂÂ
