A First War 236 Infantry Battalion Glengarry Auction An Order of the GermanWith large, rare 236th McLean Kilties of America badge, 60x65mm. The Glengarry, interestingly, has been privately altered. The leather band has been covered by a hand sewn cloth band, likely for added comfort. Also, the ribbon has replaced at some period. Nonetheless, the cap retains a strong structure, shows period use and wear. Very fine.
