Very nice Michel, I am always glad to see SD forage caps from any period.
A few more from my collection. I have one more which I picked up very recently and have not photographed yet, it is of very recent manufacture I think, missing its badge, as so many of them are, bloody badge collectors, DOH.
Post 1953 service dress cap to a colonel or brigadier ex-Royal Scots Greys, as denoted by the black crown piping & Greys side buttons. No name or initials inside, sadly. Very high quality cavalry twill cloth.
Also, another post-53 cap, this a service dress cap to a Life Guards officer. I believe only that regiment has the leather edge to the peak.
Hi, Some Army SD caps of varying periods. The first tow are RA and RA Staff Officer then some Brigadier/Substantive Colonel's caps and bringing up the rear, a Colonel/Brigadier of what I beleive to be Nursing Yeomanry but would be happy to be corrected.
Cheers Michael R
Another modern forage cap I just acquired from it's former owner, a Scots Guards officer. Made of the dark khaki barathea used by Foot Guards regiments.
Small cap badge & Royal Stewart Tartan patches, unique to this regiment. Made, as usual, by Herbert Johnson.
Hi, Congratulations on your thread being designated as a "sticky". I now feel happier showing caps as I was concerned that I may have been encroaching on your thread but as a reference, I feel happy to add a few caps. Some to view. Regards Michael R
