1977, interesting.
In 1978 1st Bn were wearing just "Fusilier" with separate UN badge on brassards while serving with UNFICYP (but not with ESBA as RRF beret badge and hackle were worn).
Rumour was that the "Fusilier" titles were actually ACF insignia.
A few attached 17/21L personnel making up numbers with 1RRF wore the brassards with the Fusilier title removed and replaced by a 17/21L motto in chrome or anod. al.
