As I have been showing a few RAC/RTR related items recently, here are some further items of insignia, all dating from WW2. Other threads can be seen here:
Group of Insignia to a Desert Rat of the 4th Armoured Brigade
British Royal Armoured Corps BD Blouse

Royal Armoured Corps slip on shoulder title worn on the BD blouse or the tankers overalls. Introduced in 1940.
RAC cap badge introduced in 1939. This was worn mainly by units in training at the depot.
RAC sweetheart made of fashionable plastic. This material was not then considered cheap or nasty like we may look upon it today.
RTR cap badge and an RTR sweetheart tie pin
Cheers, Ade.
