USN Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Good evening everyone, I was wondering if anyoneone had some items from the 9th highland light infantry regiment, glasgow highlanders that they could share? I've recently come across an officers uniform from that unit and am having a hard time finding any comparable examples anywhere, I will post photos when I have it in hand but would just like to get a jump on the research. Many Thanks, Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry37 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 The only thing I have is a cap badge for my Scottish cap badge display case. Worn on a black silk ribbon on the Glengarry. This all I am able to share, but maybe of some help. Terry 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USN Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 Hello everyone, I finally have the uniform in hand and have included photos of holes in the uniform where metal collar/ shoulder insignia once were, as well as where the tailors label used to sit in the collar and the 9th highland light infantry buttons.

USN Posted June 25 Author Share Posted June 25 Would the collar brass for this unit be the same exact ones as the black watch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guards Armoured Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 While looking for something else entirely, I found this. Hope it may be of interest. Please note that the dicing is red-white-green and the toorie is in rifle green. Best Robert 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USN Posted September 14 Author Share Posted September 14 Very nice piece! I still have yet to find any suitable collar brass unfortunately. But I do was able to locate what i believe to be the proper headgear, it is a narrow black cap with the appropriate glasgow light infantry badge and if I recall correctly a red pom ontop?
