Is it for research?

Be prepared to put some physical work in. There is a lot of information regarding every formation of the British Army, but I'd guesstimate that about ~1% is available on line. Best places are the likes of the PRO etc.

Well, kind of.

Basically I've been given a silver bugle to use and it's engraved with the unit details. I want to find out as much as possible about the coy/ bn when it was presented

PRO is probably your Daddy then. They hold all the official diaries for BA formations and can literally follow units to just about platoon level all around. Especially when deployed. If there is an issue number, you may be able to track down who it was issued to as well given an approximate time-frame.
