Captain Arthur Twentyman was the Regiments first casualty during WW1. On being brought to the field hospital, having been shot in the chest by a sniper he was trying to dislodge, he was treated by a doctor who was to receive the Victoria Cross...twice.
Great minds think alike!

The sporran of the Regiment's first casualty in WWI, and treated by a VC and Bar -- I seriously doubt it would be left in a storeroom.

Granted, Capt. Twentyman was probably not wearing it in combat, but there's a lot of history there, and important to telling the story of the sacrifice of the Liverpool Scottish in the First World War.

Again, it's not the sporran alone, but the story behind it.
