Bombay Staff Corps - A two-part waist belt clasp, 1855 pattern but with acanthus finials, centrally the crown over ïVRÍ and unit title in surround, matching bench marks ïXXXVIIIÍ, together with one only small officerÍs gilt tunic button to the same unit, c. 1856-1901. The Indian Staff Corps was a branch of the British Indian Army during Colonial rule. Separate Staff Corps were formed in 1861 for the Bengal, Madras and Bombay Armies, which constituted the Indian Army, although they were later amalgamated. They were meant to provide officers for the native regiments, and for the staff and army departments. They were also designed to offer placements for civil and political appointments for posts which Indian Army officers might be eligible. Those officers who were already employed by the Army had the option to join the Staff Corps or to stay employed under the old conditions of work. In that sense it was seen by the majority of post-1860 entrants as synonymous with the Regular Officer Corps of the Indian Army. 109th Bombay Infantry (Central India) -An officerÍs waistbelt clasp, bi-metal, gilt finish, bearing regimental device The 109th Regiment of Foot (Bombay Infantry) was an infantry regiment of the British Army from 1862 to 1881, when it was amalgamated into The Prince of WalesÍs Leinster Regiment (Royal Canadians).The regiment was originally raised by the Honourable East India Company in 1853 as the 3rd Bombay (European) Regiment, and served in the Indian Mutiny of 1857.
