Tartan[edit]

There seems to be some dispute about the RHF Regimental tartan. This was definitely HLI Mackenzie, not Government. Check any picture of men from the Battalion in No.2 dress and the red/buff overlay on the tartan is obvious. The same goes for the bonnet flash. There are many examples in the gallery on the Regimental Association's website. If you look at the TOS on the Regimental Store website, the drop down menu for the patch clearly states "RHF - Mackenzie". Thanks.--Fahrenheit666 (talk) 15:31, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Further to that - as stated here on the Regimental Association's website, "In honour of both Regiments, the RHF still wears the HLI’s Mackenzie tartan trews (trousers) and retains the Flaming Grenade cap badge from the RSF."--Fahrenheit666 (talk) 15:36, 7 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
