The metal badge was worn on a dark green Glengarry, a miniature of same worn on the leather battle sporran and the crossed arrows of the WW2 1st Special Service Force(Devil's Brigade) worn as collars on the standard CF green or tan tunics. The fabric SSF badge was also worn on the upper sleeve area of said tunics. The tunics were the highland cut away pattern, with the Black Stewart Tartan as kilt.
Here is the badge set Glengarry, Sporran collars and also Plaid brooch
