WW2 British Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Cap Badge

The WW2 British Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Cap Badge is a metal insignia issued to members of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, a distinguished infantry regiment of the British Army. This cap badge was worn on standard-issue headdress throughout the Second World War. The design features a central figure of St. Andrew holding a saltire cross, surrounded by a wreath of thistles and surmounted by a crown, representing Scottish heritage and allegiance to the monarchy. The badge is typically constructed from brass or white metal, with variations in finish depending on the period and manufacturer. The reverse side is fitted with lugs or a slider for attachment to a military cap or beret. Such badges served as important symbols of regimental identity and were integral to the uniform of Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders during military service in the 1939–1945 conflict.
