Keith, the 7 Medium Regt badges don't come up often but with it's original Murray of Atholl patch even more so.
The tartan is fairly easy to come by, I have quite a few pieces myself.
The badge altho a cannon is actually a Long Tom, (115mm Creusot) from the ABW. At Bergendal, not far from Nelspruit, the last set piece battle of the war with all 4 Long Toms taking part.
regards, Iain

Just out of curiosity, weren't Regt Laeveld formerly 2 Medium Regt, and it wasn't until much later that they transmutated into 7 Medium Regt. The original 7 Medium Regt ex- 3TS was disbanded in 1960.
Having said that, I don't suppose anybody has a spare 7 Med Regt (3TS) embroidered shoulder title going to waste?
