Amalgamation charts

British Dragoons post WWI
I started off doing this list as an image of each regiments badge with the backing of the facing colour or stable belt colours.
I have placed the first images in the reviews section under backgrounds.
The original intention of using the stable belts as a backing to the badges is a little more difficult than you would believe, so for some of them I've had to use a little poetic licence.
Updated with a couple of mistakes corrected
