The accoutrements of the 95th seem well recorded but not so much their brethern in the 60th. Does anyone know what disticntions the 60th's buglers wore or a source for the information? |

I think they wore the same uniform with the addition of wings. |

I believe the Doc is right – I think that wings were the bugler's distinction in both Rifle regiments – will try to check when I get home tonight |

[……suspenders and a bra?] No. Only the officers wore those. |

Artilleryman – if you are still out there, my book on Wellington's army says the Rifle Corps buglers all wore Rifle Corps uniforms with black and white wings on their shoulders |

Frederick,
Thanks for that. It seems to tally with what I have been able to find elsewhere. |
