 From the book obtainable from "Battle for Monte Natale"  :

                            John Strafford at the Duke of York's Royal Military School 1959


In 1954, I went to the Duke of York’s Royal Military School (DYRMS), a boarding school for the sons of soldiers. A tradition of the school was that on parade you wore the badge of your father’s regiment. I was the only boy at the school to wear the badge of the York & Lancaster Regiment.

and a bit more not in the book:
