    It appears that the first photo is from a parade of the 1st Hussars to commemorate D-Day. These are some better quality images of the tartan, with perhaps some other details in their insignia that may help pin down the tartan. You can enlarge the photos on each page.

    Thanks, looking at those pictures you can see the badge of the 1st Hussars on the bass drum and it’s also on the the bass drum in the second picture above, is it unusual for a pipe band to have two different kilts?
