Cap badge laugh

[Frederick Williams]

In 'The treasure in the tower' are the lines

ELLINGTON:
No. Me never wear uniform.

BLOODNOK:
And why not?

ELLINGTON:
Me in the third heavy Nudists!

BLOODNOK:
The third heavy Nudists?! My old regiment. Oh, what a cap badge they
had!

Bloodnok's cap badge line gets a good laugh. Why? I know that field
service caps were called 'cunt caps', but I don't see what badges have
to do with it.

Probably just because it would be held on with a big pin.

Either that or it's rhyming slang for scradge.
