Re: Cap Badge
Go to the b&c staff register site and I think under Scottish shire there is a cap badge it's quite small and I haven't got a clue how to blow it up

Re: Cap Badge
My mistake with a British and Commonwealth site wasn't Scotty Sire I meant it was Scottish tankers they have a lion on their emblem on a Scottish flag

Re: Cap Badge
Have bot found that badge as yet but was just wondering if it may have had something to do with the Clyde Shipping Company Glasgow as their House Flag has that Lion and Yellow Backing on it??

Re: Cap Badge
Hello
As that Pic is not too clear as far as the actual badge goes do you think you could perhaps get it any clearer ,possiblt crop the actual section that has the Lion and backing?
This may make it a lot easier to ID ???

Scottish Tankers did not have a cap badge. it was just part of Clan Line but with it's own house flag
