[@melbeasley9762]

Excuse me asking, but what are your guy's headress called? It's not the same as a guards bearskin, just curious. Ex 17th/21st Lancer. Good drum Corps by the way.

[@chesterflyer]

It's a sealskin

[@melbeasley9762]

@@chesterflyer Thanks for answering. I didn't know there was such a thing. Where did that tradition come from? Our headress is called a Chapka which is simply Polish for hat, but they were the first to wear the square topped cap. The plumes for OR's is horse hair. Officers have swan feathers. Just thought I'd share some info.

[@chesterflyer]

Sealskins appeared in the 1880s I think I have no idea why they adopted them but that full dress has survived in the regiment to see to the present day.

[@melbeasley9762]

@@chesterflyer Be thankful your regiment survived. Mine was ammalgamated, then the resultant regiment was ammalgamated. Bloody tories.
