Identify Scottish Regiments Cap Badges

Hi Folks. This maybe blatantly obvious to some of you, but I'm struggling to make my mind up identifying which Regiments the lads in the photographs belong too.

First Photo KOSB or RSF? 

Second photo Royal Scots? 

Third photo HLI or Royal Scots? 

I'd be very greatful for any assistance in identifying the Regiments. 

Regards Simon

First photo KOSB.  Second and third photos, both HLI, Simon.  On 2 and 3 the arrangement of the shoulder titles (2-piece loops and cotter pin configuration) can just be discerned.

I’m glad to help. I think that the three photos are of men who are related.  Photos two and three might well be the same man, with the moustache marking the later photo of the two.  I wonder if he survived.
