What are British Army corps and departments?

Corps and departments are specialist branches of the British Army providing technical, logistical, and support functions. Examples include the Royal Engineers, Royal Signals, Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC), Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME), and the Army Service Corps.

Are corps badges valuable to collectors?

Corps badges are widely collected, especially from disbanded units like the Royal Army Pay Corps or Women's Royal Army Corps (WRAC). Wartime economy-issue badges and officer's silver versions often carry higher values than standard post-war brass issues.
