Cap Badge - The Lorne Scots (Peel, Dufferin & Halton Regiment) - King's Crown Badge: In the center of a wreath of thistle and maple leaves, the crest of Viscount Peel (on a wreath of the colours argent and azure, a demi lion rampant or, gorged with a collar azure charged with three bezants, and holding between the paws a shuttle argent) resting on a scroll bearing the motto (Pro aris et focis – for hearths and altars – the traditonal militia motto) and ensigned by the Crown; below the wreath, a scroll inscribed with the designation "THE LORNE SCOTS (PEEL DUFFERIN AND HALTON REGT)". The Lorne Scots (Peel, Dufferin and Halton Regiment) originated in Brampton, Ontario on 14 September 1866, as the 36th "Peel Battalion of Infantry". It was redesignated as the 36th Peel Regiment on 8 May 1900, as The Peel Regiment on 1 May 1920 and The Peel and Dufferin Regiment on 15 April 1923. On 15 December 1936, it was amalgamated with The Lorne Rifles (Scottish) and redesignated The Lorne Scots (Peel, Dufferin and Halton Regiment). The Lorne Scots was one of the first regiments to be mobilized in the Second World War but never served as a cohesive regiment. Instead, members of the Regiment were organized into defence platoons and attached to various brigade, division and army headquarters. Members of The Lorne Scots served in every theatre of war in which Canada fought with the exception of Hong Kong. A platoon of Lornes served with the Queen's Own Rifles of Canada at the capture of Boulogne. Fifty percent of the platoon was killed or captured. Other platoons took part on the raid at Dieppe and landed on the beaches of Sicily. The Lorne Scots (Peel, Dufferin and Halton Regiment) is a Primary Reserve infantry regiment of the Canadian Army. It is part of the 4th Canadian Division's 32 Canadian Brigade Group.
