Title Royal Munster Fusiliers shoulder title
Nationality British
Period 1914-18
Sold

These titles were worn on the shoulder to indicate the unit, particularly important after the collar dogs were abandoned in 1916: if the man had lost his cap and was a casualty, next to his dog tags, this was the only indication of his unit.

This is a good, clean example, with a little service wear and tear.

I'd just like to thank you for the SS Buckle, this has to be one of the best items I have yet and am very happy with it.

Just to let you know that the bayonet arrived safely this morning by Royal Mail. I am delighted with it and it will be put to very good use at some forthcoming events.
