SDG shoulder title
The SDG shoulder title worn during the war had simply the words "GLENDARRIAN" over "CANADA" in red on a blue backing. Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry are all counties in Eastern Ontario and, as is typical, the SDG Hgrs are an amalgation of late 19th century county militia battalions. My question: why did Glengarry county prevail over Stormont and Dundas counties to be the only one used on the shoulder title? There must be a regimental tradition or two that explains this.
