The officers of Highland regimen's must follow tradition in carrying tilt concealed knife, for when the first Gaelic units were formed, hand to hand fighting was in common vogue, and the Jeweled dagger frequently staved off death or capture. To complete the metamorphosis, the regiment was presented with a new crest, which preserves the traditions of the Essex Fusiliers, the affiliation with the Essex Regiment, and the Scottish atmosphere.
