OK here ya go, a Gordon Highlanders piper with a blackcock tail in his Glengarry



Pipers of The Highlanders wearing eagle's feathers in their Glengarries. The old pipers' uniform of The Cameron Highlanders has changed very little from the 1840s to today. (They wore the same sporrans from the 1840s to 1994.)
