Drum Banner



This drum banner is still in the possession of the regiment. It dates from c1919 and was one of two identical banners. It can be seen on the Drumhorse 1927. The Royal Crest above the harp has Queen Victoria's crown which suggests that the old drum banners were adapted with the battle honours for the First World War and South Africa.
