World War One / Re: Help wanted identiying regiment from uniform
« on: Friday 11 November 22 11:57 GMT (UK)  »

This badge looks like one of the London Regiments but they were mostly Rifle Regiments and normally wore black horn buttons. 

I am pleased there there is a Sherwood Forester connection because:

The 7th Robin Hood Battalion (Territorial Force) of The Sherwood Foresters had a badge such as these two soldiers are wearing. It was issued in both white metal and blackened metal.

The Common Room / Re: Does anyone recognise this uniform?

The all female Mechanised Transport Corps wore a badge consisting of a tyre and two crossed spanners.
Your Aunt looks like a girl in her late teens wearing the bronze MTC badge on her hat. She is either in the MTC or the MTCA ( Auxiliary) which was the branch for girls too young to join the MTC proper. Both badges are similar to look at. That is what I can see.
