I deliberately did this as the second battalion, because the first carried a flag that was even duller than the uniform - “La Drapeau Blanc” or colonel’s colour in most cases was a white sheet to which was sewn a white Greek cross!Mark Strachanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988775093525037168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202191777127653648.post-47992172820805245272022-02-19T22:54:41.247+13:002022-02-19T22:54:41.247+13:00Thanks Joe.
