About the Badge
The King's Own Royal Border Regiment beret badge unites the proud histories of its two antecedent regiments in a single striking design. At its centre sits the Lion of England — a Royal Lion statant guardant — representing the King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster). Encircling the lion is a Laurel Wreath, honouring the 34th (Cumberland) Regiment of Foot, part of the former Border Regiment, for their distinguished actions at the Battle of Fontenoy in 1745. Together, these elements reflect the regiment's deep Lancastrian and Border county heritage and its centuries of service to the Crown.
A defining feature of the beret badge is its scarlet diamond felt backing — a tradition with roots in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster) wore a red backing on tropical slouch hats and helmets during the Boer War, a distinction that carried forward into the new regiment. When the King's Own Royal Border Regiment was formed in 1959, the scarlet diamond backing was officially adopted, setting the regiment apart from other units within the King's Division. This proud distinction endured until the regiment's amalgamation into the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment in 2006. The regimental scroll beneath the badge completes the presentation, naming the regiment in full and grounding the display in its proud regimental identity. Presented here against the regiment's distinctive stable belt colours, this frame brings together two of the regiment's most recognisable symbols in a single striking display.
