Default Royal Artillery cap badge with Tartan.

Hello, I have just received this RA cap badge with a tartan backing but I am unaware which Unit would wear this ( if at all) It is of Officer quality I believe.
Can a RA buff or member id this please?

Jerry,

The only two RA units I know of would be the 105 Regiment who wear a standard RA beret badge on a Hunting Ross tartan backing. The other, the 204 Tyneside Battery, who unofficially wear the old Tyneside Highlander badge (bought privately so a fake is not uncommon being worn by them). I am not aware of the 204 Tyneside wearing any tartan behind the badge, but it is worn with a red hackle.

I understand, there may be others that I am just not aware of.

Terry
