Default Queen's Royal Hussars Piper's badge

Hi Guys,

Here's a badge I recently picked up.

A Queen's Royal Hussars Piper's badge. Have been chasing of these for ages.

And also a picture of the badge being worn.

Enjoy!

Mick

Default QRH

Hi Mick
Nice photo, Notice the badges on the white shoulder? belt. Does that mean that they no longer wear the badges with a shamrock backing on the kilt?
Regards
Bob





Thanks for the other bits🤫

There is a picture of it being worn on p32 of Robin Hodges' book "British Army Badges" but no picture of the actual badge in the book.
