Cap Badge - 10th Battlion, The King's Regiment (Liverpool Scottish)
Cap Badge - 10th Battalion, The King's Regiment (Liverpool Scottish) - First Pattern: 1908 -1937
This badge was worn by the Regiment. The legend across the top reads ''Liverpool Scottish'. It has the horse that is prominent on the King's Liverpool Regiment insignia.
The Liverpool Scottish, known diminutively as "the Scottish", is a unit of the British Army, part of the Territorial Army, raised in 1900 as an infantry battalion of the King's (Liverpool Regiment). The Liverpool Scottish became affiliated to the Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders in the 1920s and formally transferred to the regiment in 1937 with its identity preserved. Reflecting the Territorial Army's decline in size since the late 1940s, the battalion was reduced to a company in 1967, then to a platoon of "A" (King's) Company, King's and Cheshire Regiment in 1999. In 2006, the company was incorporated into the 4th Battalion, Duke of Lancaster's Regiment (King's, Lancashire and Border).
