Ok, thanks!!! I have a green one with black buttons like yours (but in poor condition) and I did'n be sure what badge use to complete...Rifle brigade was the one I was told to be the more correct, but finally looking at your cap I have decided to put a KRR I recently adquired...thanks for the picture!
