Officers of the King Edward's Horse wore a leather pouch belt and pouch across the left shoulder adorned with distinctive KEH badges on the belt and pouch as shown in Figure 343.
Figure 343: A King Edward’s Horse Officer’s leather pouch belt and pouch with chains and badges in fire gilt made by Hobson's and Sons circa 1910-1924 (Originally acquired by Del Badiuk who kindly allowed me to add it to my own collection). The badges were finished in fire gilt and have the letters KEH intertwined into a distinctive cypher not seen on any other KEH badge. They were attached to the belt and pouch with three retaining screws as shown in Figure 344.
Figure 344: A King Edward’s Horse Officer’s pouch belt/pouch badge in fire gilt with three screw posts circa 1910-1924. The Officer’s pouch belt can be seen being worn in the photograph of the KEH mounted party on Royal Parade Day in 1911 shown in the KEH additional photographs page.
The mounts of the King Edward’s Horse wore ear boss badges that were white metal, circular discs with a bar for sliding the leather bridle through (65mm in diameter) mounted with a fire gilt Officer’s badge as per that worn on the Officer's belt and pouch as described above
(see Figure 345 from the author's collection). These are of the same design as the Officer’s pouch badge. The badge was attached to the metal disc with three wire prongs which protruded through three small holes in the backing disc.
