MIS-040 Shako Drummer's
Badge Since the introduction of the
cloth mitre cap, drummers had worn a metal drum on the rear of their caps. By the
Napoleonic Wars, shakos began to be worn by drummers on campaign, leaving their bearskin
caps for the parade square. To make them distinct from the rest of the men's
shakos, drummers wore a brass drum on the rear. This continued throughout the first
half of the 19th century. Click here for an image of a
fifer in 1828 wearing the brass drum at the rear of his shako. A great
tradition to revive for your fife and drum corps! 15.95US
(17.00CAN) each.
