About the Beret Badge

The King's Own Royal Border Regiment beret badge combines the proud identities of its two antecedent regiments within a single distinctive design.

At its centre stands the Royal Lion statant guardant, inherited from The King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster), symbolising loyal service to the Crown and representing a tradition that can be traced back through centuries of regimental history.

Surrounding the lion is a laurel wreath, inherited from the former Border Regiment. The wreath commemorates the gallant conduct of the 34th (Cumberland) Regiment of Foot at the Battle of Fontenoy in 1745, where the regiment's distinguished service earned the honour of incorporating the laurel into its badge.

One of the regiment's most recognisable distinctions was the scarlet diamond backing worn behind the beret badge. This tradition originated with The King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster), which wore a scarlet backing behind its badges on tropical helmets and slouch hats during the South African War (1899–1902). When the King's Own Royal Border Regiment was formed in 1959, the scarlet diamond was officially retained behind the new beret badge, creating a unique distinction within The King's Division that remained in use throughout the regiment's service until 2006.

Together, these elements represent the regiment's Lancashire and Border heritage, preserving the traditions, honours and identity inherited from generations of soldiers who served before them. Displayed alongside the regiment's stable belt, this frame brings the full regimental identity to life in a way that a plain badge alone cannot.

Ideal For

  • King's Own Royal Border Regiment veterans
  • Former members of The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment
  • Military history enthusiasts

My Battle with the Black Dog...

TheCraftyBlackdog has been created from my own battle with the Black Dog - a term most commonly used to describe a state of depression.

This was something I had unknowingly been battling for over 20 years following my time in the military. It wasn’t until I became a mother and I could no longer do the things I used to do, to escape, that things started to unravel and I had to ask for help, that was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do, making that admission.

I first became interested in arts and crafts in 2019 whilst at a place called ‘Combat Stress’ in Surrey, this is where Military Veterans like myself can go and get help for Mental Health matters. Whilst there I discovered Art Therapy (I hated art at school!) and a love for making things in the OT room. I started by making Remembrance Day related crafts and this quickly moved onto Military Insignia.

The Black Dog has stolen the mass of confidence I used to have, so I am hoping this adventure will help me to connect with people again and inspire those of you out there also having your own battle, it is one that may never be won, but it certainly can be helped.
