Help and headdress
Wigger, thanks for asking about the photo. This spring will be a special spring. With the 60th anniversary of Liberation, it is a long time ago that the soldiers posed in front of the school. It was a special time and it is great that the Dutch take such care to remember the victory.
To follow up on my question about headdress, John posted the images from the Glenn's history. The glenn and the tam seemed to be worn together. However in the group picture of the SD&G in Hilversum all the unit is wearing tams. Was there a change in dress regs? Or was the tam easier to obtain in comparison with the glenns? Odd that the headdress would be so mixed. (And, I had thought that there was some significance between Scottish units wearing the tam versus the glen.)
