Summary edit

Cap badge of the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles) From Scottish Military History Society This is a logo, and should be covered by fair use provisions for inclusion in the article about the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles). The image is no different to any of the other regimental cap badges that have been uploaded and included in articles on the regiments they represent, and so this should also be included.
