Well, the case is that some of the sources I used have an apostrophe. As I mentioned in post #6 above. Specially Regiments.org (link above), but others are shown in several of the posts above. Web sites are inconsistent.
It could be that that all that use an apostrophe are wrong and thus I am wrong. But why then the official statement mentioned in post #9 as quoted by @mike_vee from Forces War Records?
There must have been something in the past.
And because of this confusion, I try to find out what the official designation was in the different periods.
So this not about how a teacher of the English language will explain what it should be, it is about how it is written down in the official lists.
