Item History
The Queen’s Own Royal West Kent Regiment was a distinguished line infantry regiment of the British Army. The motto “Invicta” (“Unconquered”) is historically tied to the county of Kent. Black-painted badges were traditionally utilized by specific battalions, rifle regiments, or as variants for field service caps and local volunteer Home Guard militia forces throughout the World War I and World War II eras to reduce visual glint in the field.
