Thanks for that link, though from the photo I can't make out the tartan quite.
It would be nice to find a clear photo of Other Ranks to see the sporran style. I'm interested that the sporran isn't made like ordinary Seaforths sporrans.
From what I read, the 10th Seaforths was a reserve unit tasked with training drafts for the other battalions.
BTW the 5th Battalion Seaforth Highlanders wore a different cap badge, totally different sporran, and wore the Government tartan, so there is precedent for the possibility of the 10th wearing that tartan.
