Scottish Regiment Tartan Badge Backings
I am not aware of a book or source for what regiments wore a tartan backing to their cap badges, so have gone through my Copy of Doyle and Foster "British Army Cap Badges of the Second World War" and using this book I created a list of those mentioned. Not the expert, but this might give a start, as I am sure those more knowledgeable can add to or amend the list. I also am not listing the cut of the tartan or how it is positioned behind the badge.
