Hello, I am after some information on the SR shoulder titles, it was just the plain brass SR letters blackend I think? Are they from WW1 ? I am also after one of these SR shoulder title's for a medal frame I am making, as my grand father was in the CAMERONIANS in WW1. Are these available over there in the UK ? I am in Australia. My father was in the CAMERONIANS in WW2, does anyone know what metal shoulder titles they wore ? Thankyou for any information on this subject. Stu

I think it depended on which Battalion they were in.

I have cloth slids with a red Y on them, which I believe was a Divisional Flash.

My Grandfather was in the 2 Bn and served with BEF in Dunkrik and later landed in Italy.

Hello Opey70,

Thank you very much for the information, my father was in the 2nd Btn in WW2. I made a frame from items I have now, but will add more later such as a metal WW2 shoulder title, If there was one? I hope this photo works below!

I am working on a frame on my grand fathers WW1 service, I have found out there were two sizes of metal SR shoulder titles worn. I am trying to find these and will then put the frame together..
Thanks again Stu

The text boxes and arrows in the picture below were for when I sent the picture to my sisters, it explained the frame to them.

Hello, just to let you know I managed to purchase a SR metal WW1 shoulder title. It looks like the smaller type. All the best, Stuart
