Unfortunately the Royal Scots is just a "blow-up" from my previous post, but the Lothian is a proper close-up with a bit better detail. Hope these are ok for you tho' would like to see a better R.S from any other member if they have one. Regards Jeff

PS: I note the curious reversal of metals on the centre ornaments when compared to your badge. Was this supposed to distinguish between the 1st & 2nd Battns ?
Good question. I believe I recall reading that the blue or green enamel on the badge distinguished the battalions, but no idea about the metal, or even if this distinction was continued. I don't recall ever seeing blue on the later forage cap badges.
