The Army Cyclist Corps was formed in 1914, absorbing a number of pre-existing cyclist battalions, from the Territorial
Force where they had mainly undertaken the role of Coastal Patrols.
These pre-war units wore their own distinctive unit badges, whereas the cyclist units raised during the war all wore
the Army Cyclist Corps badge. The first cyclist units went overseas in 1915 to France and Flanders and to Gallipoli,
undertaking a reconnaissance roll with the Army Divisions and taking the number of the individual Division.
The Corps was Disbanded in 1919.
Picked this wound badge up at the Lacock at War event at the weekend.
