Another 42nd question. In Bloomer, Badges of the Highland & Lowland Regiments there is a 73rd Regiment of Foot O/Rs Bell top shako plate pre-1862. Not sure if this is the correct headdress? K&K has this type of badge under Albert shako. But my main question is would the 42nd have had this badge/headgear, of just feather bonnet? So the 73rd even though it joined with the 42nd was really a lowland regiment?
Sorry that was really 3 questions!
