Another sealed pattern numbered 19518 and same date as previous.
This example marked for Tam-o-shanter. Its worth remembering in 1966 the regiment was still wearing the badge of the Highland Division, the star badge only being worn by pipers.

Silver plated WM collars, cast flat backs with single central lug.
Thought to be Hong Kong made and worn by the band there in 1972/4.
Not in Churchill.

Frank, the backs are not so nice however, also check out the size of St. Andrews fingers.
