27th Independent Infantry Brigade
Dear all,
For the last two decades, I've been looking for a photo that shown members of the 1st Battalion of Argyll & Sutherland who have the formation sign of 27th Independent Infantry Brigade on his sleeve. I have visited most of the Regiment home page that related to Korean War,it seem I do not have the luck to locate one. Maybe this formation sign was in use in a very short period by the above mentioned army personnel (later was replaced by the formation sign of 40th Infantry Division). Appreciate if any of our members have any suggestions; advises, please contact with me. Happy collecting ! With warmest regards, Bruno 074e_7.jpg IMG_20140131_122731.jpg IMG_20140131_121627.jpg Last edited by commonwealthlover; 19-07-14 at 09:36 PM. |

The caption to the attached photographs mentions officers of the A and SH wearing the formation sign of the 40th Div. "on their arrival in Korea"
P.B.

I have never seen an image of the sign of 27 Indep Inf Bde being worn by 1 A&SH, but this in my possession would indicate that it was actually worn. I'm still trying to work out where and when. In my opinion more likely to have been worn in Hong Kong post-Korea. Mike
