poona guard Posted 11 April , 2023 Share Posted 11 April , 2023 Does anyone have photos showing the cloth battalion/divisional badges worn by any of the Highland Regiments that I could have to use in volume 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4thGordons Posted 13 April , 2023 Share Posted 13 April , 2023 (edited) Gordons Horizontal Battalion Strips I *THINK* it is one of the TF battalions but now I am second guessing myself and need to check EDIT: Phew - yes 4 horizontal dark blue bars = 7th Gordons (153rd Inf Bde) Edited 13 April , 2023 by 4thGordons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poona guard Posted 15 April , 2023 Author Share Posted 15 April , 2023 Thanks, that's excellent - definitely included. Do you have any more, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4thGordons Posted 15 April , 2023 Share Posted 15 April , 2023 (edited) I have a couple one post war (of a group of Sgts with medals and HD patches) and I think a few with partials -- I'll have a look. IIRC there is a picture of the 1/4th Gordons at Arras in the IWM images which shows them with light blue bars painted on helmets and I think also shoulder strips. I assume you have the 51 Divs battalion marking scheme? Chris Here are the post-war Sgts (with 51st HD patches) and some other nice badges Chris Edited 15 April , 2023 by 4thGordons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poona guard Posted 15 April , 2023 Author Share Posted 15 April , 2023 Thanks Chris. I might use this photo in the introduction and will welcome any more you have. Dave Do you know which battalion they are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
