They were badged to the Queens Royal Lancers, David. But that was prior to the QRL being amalgamated.
Images on their FB page show them still wearing the Motto in 2018.

They were badged to somebody else,completely unrelated prior to that.
What i dont get is that being QRL they should have worn the red backing,yet they dont.

I think it could have been RGJ or LI that they were badged to prior to the QRL. Once the Rifles came into being the association ceased and they went over to the QRL.
