Editing Calgary Highlanders (section)

==Badge==
The badge is based on that worn by the 10th Battalion, CEF, which the regiment perpetuates. Significantly, a [[Saltire|St. Andrew's Cross]] has been added to the design (this is not a representation of the [[Roman Numeral]] ten as is often erroneously reported).

The crown is of the reigning monarch; a [[Tudor Crown (heraldry)|Tudor Crown]] was used from the introduction of this badge<ref>First approved by General Order 112 in 1925.</ref> until 1953, and the ascension of [[Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom|Queen Elizabeth II]]. The crown was then changed to a [[St. Edward's Crown]]. These are sometimes referred to as "King's" and "Queen's" Crowns. The beaver and maple leaves are representative of Canada and the scrolls bearing thistles are representative of Scotland. The City of Calgary grew out of [[Fort Calgary]], established in 1875 and so named by Colonel [[James Macleod]] after [[Calgary, Mull|Calgary, Scotland]], a location near his sister's home.

The badge appears not only as a [[cap badge]], but is also seen on the regiment's drums, as well as the drum major's sash and regimental pipe banners.
