    Re: Ships Badges..

    Hello Chaz
    Please note that the correct term is ships BADGES, not crests, and always has been since 1919 when the current official system of Royal Naval Heraldry was established.

    Hello Hodge,
    What ships badges designs are you seeking?

    Re: Ships Badges..

    Hello Forth
    Please note that for those of us that either HAVE served, or are, in fact STILL serving the correct term is ships CREST not BADGE. A Badge is something sewn onto your No1 Uniform at certain intervals of your career.
    Anyone who comes on here without having served and spouts off about 1919 and heraldry really does think about moving out of mummy and daddys house and looking for a girlfriend. Or a life
    mmmkay there Dorothy?

    Oh, and "Hodge". See above. They aren't the same thing.
    Chaz was trying to help and you pair have come across as a pair of cocks.
    Nice one and welcome to you both

    Hello Lamri,
    You are wrong.
    If YOU are serving or have served, check DCIs/ Navy lists.
    A Ships Badges Comittee is listed, never a Ships Crests Comittee.
    Your other comments should be placed where the sun never shines.

    Dear Lamri,
    Dont want to get into a slagging match but I was in uniform when you were still in nappies.

    Just to remind you, the guy was asking about sourcing Ships Badges...

    May I remind YOU that the Sea Cadet is looking for photos of Ships CRESTS, as called such by MATELOTS.
