Here is a picture showing Major-General Richard Hilton with some of his officers. Taken about 15 years before WWII.

G'day Guys,
Here is another example of false Damascus etching and mystical symbols on a British sword. This is a 10th (or Prince of Wales) Hussars regimental pattern sabre dating from 1808. The blade was probably imported from Solingen in the late 1790's and mounted in England.
Cheers,
Bryce
