What colour were the Glengarry's of the London Scottish in WW1? The dark muddy coloured Glengarry's I've seen in colour plates could be intended to be dark grey or dark blue. I suspect the latter.

Very dark blue No dicing Pretty sure

Thanks. None of the photos I've seen for the London Scottish had dicing on the Glengarry's.

Very dark blue is correct. No dicing. Period examples I've seen are clearly distinct from black one at 1:1 scale, but it's a dark enough blue that it would be tough to distinguish from black at small scales.
