Default Cameronians date of use

Sparked by one in the sales thread I managed to find this account about the use of the Cameronians bonnet badge in a/a by the TA and ACF:

T.A. Units

The 6th/7th Battalion was disbanded to Company strength in 1966 and became part of the new T&AVR as 52 Lowland Volunteers.

In 1971, another Battalion (2nd 52nd Lowland Volunteers) was formed and a new Cameronian Company (No 4 Coy) was included with D Company. In 1995, both Companies changed their cap badges and the CAMERONIANS T.A. was no more. In December 1999, the last of those Cameronian-Badge wearers, the Lanarkshire Army Cadet Force, also changed their headdress. The words of command given by the Officer-In-Charge may have been “CAMERONIANS remove headdress”, and at the end of the service, “Kings’ Own Scottish Borderers and Associated Units, Replace Headdress” The CAMERONIANS (Scottish Rifles) were no more.
