I also have a photo of a Liverpools Scottish soldier whose wife of girlfriend is wearing a dress of the units ( Forbes ) tartan with cap badge worn as a brooch.

Oh very common. My mother was WRAC Signals and collected cards of Women in uniform. She had 1000's and a good percentage from WWl. A hell of a lot of them just girlfriends / wives in their mens uniforms and it wasn't just this country there was a lot of German girls wearing the stuff too!

WW1 soldier with obscelete cap badge
Very interesting photo of a Liverpool Scottish soldier in WW1 wearing the glengarry badge of the 8th ( Scottish ) Volunteer battalion rather than the
10th ( Scottish) Battalion cap badges introduced in 1908- just shows WW1 soldiers often wore whatever badges were available. Also of interest is the broken shoulder title now just T/10 the Liverpool/Scottish parts no longer being present. P.B |
