Sgt Johnson sports a very interesting shoulder. It is likely dated correctly, as the geometric pattern formation patch for the RHC is not visible. It appears to be a "T" shaped Black Watch title, which includes the Canada at the base. And there is no Canada nationality title on the tunic. There no authority for, or evidence of, the "T" shaped titles in CARO's or the regimental records that I have been able to find. This is the first confirmation of this type of title in wear.
I removed the Picture since I'm at Canada At War and the Info Mr. Phillip provided I will contact the individual and provide him the link.
You got a good eye Mr. Bill.
