HMS Talisman (N78)

(1/1)

Phill Brady:
I was the 1st Lt, then OIC of the Sea Cadet unit TS Talisman, and have collected a ships badge for each ship and shore establishment I have been on. However, I haven’t been able to locate a badge for HMS Talisman, a T class submarine which was lost on 17th September 1942 and after which my SCC unit was named.

The only ‘badge’ I can find is a JPEG image from the internet and I am not sure if the badge would have been round or diamond shaped, though from doing some research I suspect that the diamond shape would have been correct, with the boats name being in black letters on a gold background.

I would be grateful for any help with my search, in particular any advice on obtaining a badge for wall mounting.

Thank you.

PhiloNauticus:

Despite what is shown on the some websites, the correct badge is a diamond - black lettering on gold.

Thanks PhiloNauticus. I've had a look on their site but can't find a Talisman badge. I might send them an email to see if they've got one tucked away somewhere. Their prices are a bit on the high side but the badges do look well made!
