Scots Guards red-backed rank chevrons
The attached BD is being offered on a well-known auction site,
Can anyone explain the red backing to the chevrons? Is this a known Guards custom or peculiar to the Scots Guards or does it signify something particular? Or is it just a made up item - which I doubt. I have run this past the Guards Museum who can shed no light on it so over to the Forum's members... Jon

Hello
Those are the type of chevrons we wore in the Junior Guardsmans Company (later Junior Guardsmans Wing) at the Guard's Depot Pirbright in the early 1970's on both BD & No2 Dress, but the London District formation badge was not worn by us Boy soldiers in that period.
