In the centre is an embossed circle, around the edge of which is 'AUSTRALIAN INFANTRY REGIMENT'.

Historical information

Donor, Esma/Esme Berryman (born 1923) was the daughter of Alice Matilda Markey (nee Chitty) and William James Markey, so the badge is likely to have some connection with a member of one of these two local Toodyay families.
