Cloth KOMR titles
A couple of snippets:
1. The 'KING'S OWN MALTA R.' title is the earlier version, white thread on scarlet felt. The 'pinkish' colour of the lettering is due to accidental rain soaking, causing the felt to run. I know, cause the title was my own, both of which I removed prior to returning kit.
2. The 'K.O.M.R.' title was meant to supercede the above title in 1971 but stocks were retained in Stores due to the Regiment's disbandment. So it was authorised but never issued.
