BADGES – ARMOURED CORPS
The Pakistan Armoured Corps badge consists of crossed lances with pennons, at the crossing a right-handed male fist (gauntlet) depicting power and strength in the face of enemy. Below a scroll inscribed in Urdu PAKISTAN.
The President’s Body Guards cap badge in silver plate, post 1956 pattern. Crossed lances with pennants, the monogram ‘PBG’ just below the crossing, and the ‘Star and Crescent’ (replacing the crown of the old Governor General’s Body Guards (GGBG) in the upper angle of the lances.
4 Cavalry badge consists of crossed lances with pennons and upon the crossing of the lances a tank head on. It has no specific regimental identity. The tank is un gilt or brass, and the lances with pennons in white metal.
Probyn’s Horse badge comprises crossed lances with pennons, a sheaf of jute at the crossing of lances and across the base of the lances a scroll in white metal inscribed PROBYN’S HORSE. The sheaf is in gilt or brass and the remainder in silver plate or white metal. A blue and red backing is worn behind the badge. The sheaf appears to derive from the early pouch belt badge, worn by officers of the regiment in 1857-58 when it was first raised.
The 6th Duke of Connaught’s Own Lancers retained its royal title until March 1956. Since then the regiment has been known simply as the 6th Lancers. The new badge was at first simply crossed lances with pennons and the numeral ‘6’ at the crossing. Subsequently a scroll with the regimental motto being added.
7th Lancers badge appears to be inspired by the old 7th Haryana Lancers badge, the Roman numeral VII at the crossing of two lances with pennons, below a scroll inscribed Lancers.

9th Horse badge consists of crossed lances with pennons, the numeral ‘9’ at the crossing and a scroll below inscribed with HORSE.
Guides Cavalry badge was redesigned but incorporated as much of the old pattern as possible. The Victorian Crown was replaced by a monogram ‘GC’ doubled and reversed (for Guides Cavalry). The design of the grater remains much the same and an Arabic motto has replaced the old motto. The Royal and Imperial Cypher of Queen Victoria is replaced by the Frontier Force monogram ‘FF’. The scroll now reads simply THE CORPS OF GUIDES CAVALRY.
11th Cavalry cap badge in gilding metal, worn by all ranks, retained the Kandahar Star on crossed sabers, but without the crown. The circlet within the star contains the numeral ‘’11’ and in the strap of the circlet the words KABUL TO KANDAHAR 1880 is replaced with a Quranic Ayat حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ . This was essentially the same design as the badge worn by its ancestor regiment, the 3rd Punjab Cavalry. In early 1974 the design of the badge was changed to the more Islamic pattern in brass and this is currently worn by the regiment.
When 12th Cavalry (Frontier Force) was re-raised in 1955, it inherited the seniority and battle honours of the old Sam Browne’s Cavalry. However the name of the founder is officially not incorporated onto the regimental title and a completely new design was chosen for the regiment’s badge. Even so, the regiment is still known unofficially as Sam Browne’s Cavalry. The cap badge consists of crossed lances with pennons with the monogram “CAV” (for CAVALRY) at the crossing, and the numeral ‘12’ in the upper angle of the lances.
13th Lancers, in keeping with its seniority in the hierarchy of the Pakistan Armoured Corps, has an elaborate badge in silver and gilt worn by officers of the regiment. Until 1956 the badge design was the same as the pre-1947 pattern.
