Other Ranks' Badges c1895



The main badge was worn on the glengarry undress cap and featured the Welsh Dragon inside the laurel wreath and Queen Victoria crown over the circle. The small dragon badges were worn on the white collar although prints of the regiment both in 1893 and post 1905 show the Sphinx being used as a collar badge. The cap badge changed in 1898 to the more familiar type illustrated on our main page. This lasted until amalgamation in 1969.
