Drum Major’s Mace


The mace carried by the Green Howards drum-major was photographed in 1997. Its design suggests that it is not modern i.e. the last 70 years or so. It has the name Green Howards just above the Garter so this is a post-1920 mace. The battle honours for WW1 are visible but those of WW2 cannot be seen from this photo.
