Tim P Posted 23 October , 2011 Share Posted 23 October , 2011 looking to replicate a cutaway tunic for the QOCH and I have the shoulder titles but I need to know if any of the regular battalions wore any divisional or other formation cloth insignia on the upper sleeve?

o j kirby Posted 27 October , 2011 Share Posted 27 October , 2011 Hello Troops, In the West Highland museum in Fort William, you can see an excellent WW1 Cameron tunic with kilt and kilt apron. The tunic was issued to a Corporal signaller, and has rectangular Cameron tartan patches on both upper arms. Worth a look if you are ever passing through Fort William. The museum is in Cameron Square just off the High Street. Cheers, Owain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
