Cap and Collar Badges

**Rog Ball 01** · 08-01-2009, 18:27

Lookign at the new random threads, I notice that:

1. The new cap badge is displayed. Has this been ratified yet as the new bage that is to be worn?

2. A collar badge is displayed. Is this badge applicable to 1 RW or are they for both Bns. If they are for the 1st only, what collar badges are the 2nd Bn wearing?

Scorch, you'll find that the 2nd Battalion do not have a welsh flag as their TRF. It is a Dragon Passent and i believe the 3rd is a blue and green patch.

All the best

All 3 Bns are/will be dressed the same when in cerimonial, service dress and barrack dress. The only visible differance of what Bn a R WELSH soldier is in will be in C95 (woodland and desert) where Tactical Recognition Flashes (TRF's) are worn. Pictures of the TRF's are attched...
