Cap Badge on a Clan Balmoral?

[Pegasys]

this is how my cap looks at the moment for general wear , I do have a pewter clan badge that I swap out for occasions when the bright color is not so desireable 20160723_194651.jpg the feather embellishment is Scottish Red Grouse and I made it myself

I've seen military tams with a swatch of tartan and a badge pinned over it. If you wanted tartan on the bonnet this would be an alternative to a full tartan bonnet.

These can be purchased. The TOS was the working dress head dress for the Scottish Infantry. All Regiments had their tartan patch on their TOS except the Black Watch because of their Red Hackle.

The one on the left is the Royal Scots TOS and the tartan patched is correctly fitted.

If I might just say, we are discussing civilian attire here. A swatch of tartan is perfectly alright for a military tam and the correct tartan and how it is displayed is laid down by regulations. A well dressed civilian does not usually wear a tartan swatch on his bonnet, or a tartan bonnet.

Just saying.

The question of military TOSs did come up with tartan patches.
Some of us do wear them especially when hiking or walking for a charity, but there again we are Scottish Infantry Vets.

Fair enough that is fine,you are entitled so to do, although as civilians most veterans choose not to in my experience, on a day to day basis. However, we do need to remember most members of this website are not Scottish Infantry Vets.
