Can anyone provide any information about the attached badge please?

Don't think it's an official Royal Navy badge. Could have been designed by an engine room petty officer (crossed anchors and ER). You can get anything made these days.

Jim, I thought it looked like crossed anchors and EIIR - just my tuppence worth, as you say anything can be made these days.

You are right H. It is most likely a custom made blazer badge for a former Petty Officer.

TU Both for your pennyworths.

Hi David
I have had a request via the website from a daughter of an Instructor at Ganges in 1950, his name was:
Charles Harry Swann Price
Sadly he passed away last year but going through his odds & ends they found a cap with this badge on, any idea what it is please?

Any info, suggestions, thoughts welcome.

These are the only elephants badges I have.

Picture search produced this, looks like an Heinz beanz. https://www.tradeindia.com/products/roy ... 915699.htm
