It looks like a souvenir Hptm Ehrmann got on the battle fields in WWI from a British soldier. Maybe some British forum member can tell to which regiment this badge belonged... just a wild guess!

Cap Badge
That's right, it's the cap badge of the Royal Fusilieers.Comment

Giday Akira,
The English cap badge belongs to the Northumbaland Fusiliers. For memory, the moto on the badge should read Quo Fata Vogant, or something similar to that. Unfortunately I am at work and I don't have any reference books with me.
My grandfather was a member of the Northumbaland Fusiliers. Consequently, when ever I see a Northumbaland Fusilieers badge for sale at a fair, I usually buy it.
Akira, if you want any info about the Northumbaland Fusiliers, please drop me a line.
Best wishes,
IanComment

Giday Akira,
I may be wrong, but based upon the badges in my collection, your Northumbaland Fusiliers badge looks to be of World War 2 vintage.
Best wishes,

Thank you for interesting comments! Had no idea what it is, the time I spent for scanning has already paid!
To conclude this thread I think I need one of his photograph. May Herr Ehrmann rest in peace.Comment
