Maybe because it was an RWR Cap Badge, Captain Skagfeld?

Don Zorniak, from the Royal Winnipeg Rifles Museum, put that RWR Cap with the Cap-Badge on my head to take this photo because of my interest and caring about my Uncles ... and the other soldiers from their regiment. Nice. The cap and badge are why I love those photos so much ... Don sent them to me when he got back to Winnipeg.

At the campsite, DSon was in WW2 PERTH REGIMENTAL DRESS ... but for the parade itself, he wore WW2 Royal Winnipeg Rifle's dress ... I told him that as far as I was concerned that today, for the parade, I would be thinking of him as being Rifleman Edward Smith H/42084 ... ( for the VE Day my Uncle Eddie never got to enjoy knowing about)

Yep ... love those pics best
