Divisional Colours

Recommended Posts

In a book I have just purchased their is a photograph of what the author claims is the King's Colour of the 10th (Irish) Division in Armagh Cathedral. Has anyone ever heard of a Colour being presented to a division? I know King's Colurs were presented to Service Battalions within a division but I've never heard of them being presented to the division itself.

I've never heard of this before, certainly the Regimental Colour and Soverign's

Colour. I believe some battalions adopted their own flag but I think this was

unofficial. Maybe the author meant and regiment of the 10th Div.

This follows my own line of thinking. If I get an opportunity I will pay a visit to the Cathedral and see the "divisional colour" for myself.
