The Highland Regiment (1943-1949)

[CAMERON HIGHLANDER]

Hello, I am new to this forum, and I'm trying to find out what tartan patch that this unit wore with The Highland Regiment, that was form on January 1943 and disbanded on December 1949.

Here's a link on e-bay I've found on it!

Is this the correct tartan patch to be worn with it

Any advise on this would be appreciated!!

As the Highland Regt. supplied trainees mainly for the BW and A&SH, I think the 42nd Gov't backing would have been worn (if any)...

Dean,
Thank you for the information,as I've been trying to find anything related Regimental wise etc on this unit!? Was the unit a (T.A.) Territorial Army Reserve-Training unit? Or a Regular Army Regiment for the duration of hostilities!?

Also, Is there any decent books out there that would shed more light on this unit!?


Thanks again!
