do you mean "REGIMENTAL" flash? see the attached thread http://britishbadgeforum.com/forums/...n+guards+flash if this is the flash you mean then yes it was worn by the 4th /7th Royal Dragoon Guards. In Dress Distinctions of the 4th /7th Royal Dragoon Guards Cox notes "The regimental flash was worn by all ranks in battle dress upon the left sleeve below the formation sign"... " Up until recently (the book was published in 1961) the flash was machine made in silken thread but is now machine made of worsted thread." John |

Something is in the back of my head which says the White Horse of Hanover was the distinction for Dettigen.
