Default Pipe Major - Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry (SNIY)

Hi Guys,

Here's a great photo of the Pipe Major of the Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry (SNIY) from the SNIY Facebook page.

His Pipe Major appointment patch looks the same as the one worn by the RSDG Pipe Major.

Also does anyone know what plaid brooch he is wearing and have a picture of it?

Mick

Your right - it looks like a RSDG plaid broach he is wearing.

Collar is different on the SNIY , no gold yellow piping.
And SNIY has an extra crown above the chevrons.
