Default Army Dress Regs

Just found this online. Some of you may already have seen it, but it looks useful:

Absolutely fascinating read, thanks for sharing David. Isn’t it a pity we never had ones from the past to compare.

A wealth of information.
All I need now is to find an abandoned Army Clothing Store

You mean the one we've already raided and cleaned out?

There seems to be no coverage of the Household Cavalry and the Guards. Is this intentional?

David,
Many thanks for posting the link. An excellent and informative document but it seems incomplete lacking Part 6 and possibly several amendments. For example Annex A to Section 7 Metal Shoulder Titles includes numerous obsolete titles of regiments that were amalgamated years earlier and omits the "new" titles. A typical 'cut and paste' job it would have benefitted from a stiff proof reading process with a check for consistency and a spellcheck!

That is a joke of course for any MoD civilian document.
